My question involves business law in the state of: Florida
My wife, friend, and I are forming an LLC (a real estate investment club) in Florida. We recently discovered that the post office requires that we complete form 1583 (Application for Delivery of Mail through Agent) to establish a mail box at a mail center with a street address. As such, fields 10a-10e on that form require a "business address" and corresponding info. That said:
a. We're not required to nor will we have a "business address" for the city or county in which we live (because of the nature of our real estate investments)--essentially, we're not considered a business locally. As such, no permits or business licenses are required locally.
b. We will need a registered agent in FL for service of process as a requirement of the state.
c. We however will need a "business address" for the LLC state and EIN filings which is the purpose of mail box at a mail center with a street address.
Since we're not required to nor will we have a "business address" per (a.) above, would we be able to use the registered agent address per (b.) above solely to populate the business address field boxes 10a-10e on 1583 which, in turn, will enable us to obtain a mail box at a mail center with a street address for (c.) above...?
We've inquired with our post master but cannot get them to officially opine about using the registered agent's address for box 10. I don't think they understand, are willing to give out advice, or care that there are competing requirements for the city, county, state, feds, and USPS that either overlap or are mutually exclusive. Wanted to see if it is permissible to populate box 10 on 1583 with our registered agent's address. If the registered agent address is sufficient for form 1583, we would then be in compliance with the city, county, state, federal government, and ultimately the USPS.
Thanks very much.
