If you have recently received a notice from the Annual Filing Division for a Statement of Information, please verify that it is legitimate.  Recently there has been a number of these solicitation letters sent out to California business owners requesting an additional fee to be sent in order for the Limited Liability Company to file the information.  These forms look very similar to the Secretary of State’s Statement of information forms, but are not legitimate.  You can read the Alert from the Secretary of State regarding these.   You can also view two different versions that Vine Solutions has come across here.   solicitationletter  solicitationletter2
