No Copy of Your Filed Statement? We Can Get It

To publish, we need your county-stamped Riverside County FBN statement. If you don't have a copy, add our statement-copy option when you order: we retrieve the filed statement from Riverside County and email it to you as a PDF, so you don't need to upload anything.

Price: +$19, added to your order total before you pay
Turnaround: about 48 hours of county processing, then postal mail time for the copy to reach us
What you get: a copy of your county-stamped filed statement (PDF by email)

The $19 retrieval fee is non-refundable once we've placed the request with Riverside County, because the county's copy fee is spent at that point.

The Riverside County Rule, in Short

Riverside County stretches from Corona and Riverside to Temecula, Palm Springs, and Indio. Wherever your business operates in the county, your FBN notice must run in a newspaper adjudicated for Riverside County, and the affidavit goes back to the county clerk where you filed. Double-check your statement before you file it: Riverside treats any correction as a brand-new filing with a new fee.

Cities we serve in Riverside County: Riverside, Moreno Valley, Corona, Murrieta, Temecula, Menifee, Jurupa Valley, Indio, Hemet, Perris, Eastvale, Lake Elsinore, Palm Desert, Palm Springs, Cathedral City, and every other community in the county.

Three time limits under California Business and Professions Code §17917:

First publication within 45 days after your statement is filed.
Four weekly notices, once a week for four consecutive weeks.
Affidavit of publication filed with the county clerk within 45 days after the fourth notice.

Orange County and San Diego County clerks state that a statement not published within 45 days expires and must be refiled. A renewal with no changes doesn't need publication as long as it's refiled by the expiration date or within 40 days after. Missed the 45 days? What to do next.
