Articles vs operating agreement
This packet is built around the official Kansas articles of organization. Filing it with the state creates the LLC as a public legal entity.
The $9.99 price is not for inventing a government form. It covers the current official blank, companion files, email support, and lifetime updates if the official form changes.
This is not an operating agreement. Articles create the company; the operating agreement is the internal contract among members.
Need the internal rulebook too? After you file, most customers also download a member-managed or manager-managed operating agreement for Kansas.

Yes. This packet is built around Articles of Organization Domestic (Kansas) Limited Liability Company. If the state later revises the official blank, lifetime updates cover a replacement packet.
When the state publishes a free official form, that blank is still free on the government site. This product packages the current form we carry, any companion files listed on this page, email support, and lifetime updates if we replace the packet. It is not a filing service and it does not pay the state’s filing fee.
This packet currently includes 2 documents in print-ready PDF format. The list on this page is the customer-facing inventory.
Kansas generally does not file the operating agreement with these articles, but banks, lenders, and multi-member LLCs almost always want one. Choose member-managed if every owner will run the company, or manager-managed if appointed managers will run it.
No. ILRG provides self-help forms and information. You complete the documents and file them with the state, or use the official online portal where that is required. Consult a licensed attorney for tax elections, professional-license entities, or unusual ownership structures.
