That's because Delaware C corps have a familiar structure for issuing stock, fundraising and offering equity to employees."},{"question":"How long does it take to incorporate?","answer":"Once you've submitted your information, incorporation can typically be completed within a few business days. The exact timing depends on state processing times and how quickly any required information is provided."},{"question":"What's included in the incorporation process?","answer":"SeedLegals helps you:<br \/>\r\n<br \/>\r\n<ul><br \/>\r\n <li>File your Certificate of Incorporation<\/li><br \/>\r\n <li>Obtain your EIN<\/li><br \/>\r\n <li>Set up founder stock<\/li><br \/>\r\n <li>Add vesting provisions<\/li><br \/>\r\n <li>Support 83(b) elections<\/li><br \/>\r\n <li>Create company bylaws<\/li><br \/>\r\n <li>Set up your cap table<\/li><br \/>\r\n <li>Prepare for fundraising<\/li><br \/>\r\n <li>Appoint directors and set up your board<\/li><br \/>\r\n <li>Get unlimited, direct support from our team via email or video<\/li><br \/>\r\n<\/ul><br \/>\r\n<br \/>\r\n<p>Everything is managed in one place.<\/p>"},{"question":"I'm currently operating as an LLC. What should I do?","answer":"If your LLC has already created IP, signed contracts, onboarded customers or has multiple founders, you'll usually need to convert it into a Delaware C corp rather than start again from scratch.<br \/>\r\nIf your LLC hasn't traded and has no assets, customers, contracts or IP, you may be able to form a new Delaware C corp instead. Our team can help you understand which option is right for you."},{"question":"Do I need a lawyer to incorporate?","answer":"No. SeedLegals guides you through the incorporation process with automated workflows and legal documents built alongside legal experts, helping you get set up quickly and correctly without the traditional law firm costs."},{"question":"Can I start fundraising immediately after incorporation?","answer":"Yes. Once your Delaware C corp is set up, you can immediately start preparing for fundraising by creating SAFEs, setting up a priced round, sharing your pitch page and managing your cap table on SeedLegals.<br \/>\r\n"},{"question":"What is an EIN and why do I need one?","answer":"An Employer Identification Number (EIN) is your company's federal tax ID number. You'll need it to open a business bank account, process payroll and carry out many day-to-day business activities."},{"question":"What should I prepare before incorporating?","answer":"It's helpful to have:<br \/>\r\n<br \/>\r\n<ul><br \/>\r\n <li>Your company name<\/li><br \/>\r\n <li>Founder details<\/li><br \/>\r\n <li>Proposed ownership split<\/li><br \/>\r\n <li>Director and officer information<\/li><br \/>\r\n <li>Any plans for founder vesting<\/li><br \/>\r\n<\/ul><br \/>\r\n<br \/>\r\n<p>Don't worry if you haven't figured everything out yet \u2014 our team can help guide you through the process.<\/p>"},{"question":"Will Founder Institute founders receive support from SeedLegals?","answer":"Yes.

Trusted by more than 60,000 companies in the United Kingdom, SeedLegals has transformed the startup ecosystem. With over $2.5 billion raised through their platform, one-third of all early-stage funding rounds in the U.K. have been done through SeedLegals. Now, the company aims to empower U.S. founders with a faster, more affordable approach to fundraising and legal documentation.<\/p>\n<p> <\/p>\n<div style=\"padding: 56.25% 0 0 0; position: relative;\"><iframe style=\"position: absolute; top: 0; left: 0; width: 100%; height: 100%;\" title=\"SeedLegals is launching in America\" src=\"https:\/\/player.vimeo.com\/video\/1024580756?badge=0&autopause=0&player_id=0&app_id=58479\" frameborder=\"0\"><\/iframe><\/div>\n<p><script src=\"https:\/\/player.vimeo.com\/api\/player.js\"><\/script><br \/>\n<em>“Whether it\u2019s SAFEs or a priced round, U.S. founders can now complete the process seamlessly, with support from our team and legal partners, for a fraction of the cost of a law firm.”<\/em><\/p>\n<p><em>Anthony Rose, Co-Founder and CEO of SeedLegals<\/em><\/p>\n<p> <\/p>\n<p>Navigating the legal landscape for startups has historically been a slow, costly, and opaque process. Founders often rely on law firms at every stage of fundraising, incurring significant expenses and delays. SeedLegals is transforming this process with an intuitive, end-to-end platform that simplifies startup legal requirements.<\/p>\n<p> <\/p>\n<p>\u201cThe time and cost of doing a funding round in the U.S. is insane,\u201d said Anthony Rose, Co-Founder and CEO of SeedLegals. \u201cWe\u2019re about to change that. Whether it\u2019s SAFEs or a priced round, U.S. founders can now complete the process seamlessly, with support from our team and legal partners, for a fraction of the cost of a law firm.”<\/p>\n<p> <\/p>\n<p>When fundraising, many founders download free legal templates from the internet, which lack the compliance, structure, and specificity required for critical funding documentation. SeedLegals fills this gap with workflow and platform-generated legal documents based on established standards, including NVCA funding round documents designed exclusively for startups, offering clear guidance, customizable templates, and dedicated support.<\/p>\n<p> <\/p>\n<p>Founders can use SeedLegals\u2019 platform to manage everything from founder vesting agreements and cap tables to share options, SAFEs (simple agreements for future equity), and full funding rounds \u2014 all from a single dashboard.<\/p>\n<p> <\/p>\n<p>SeedLegals provides a step-by-step roadmap for every phase of a startup\u2019s journey, from incorporation to funding rounds and beyond. By simplifying the process, the platform eliminates the need for founders to navigate complex legal matters on their own or pay large amounts to law firms for documents that are standardized.<\/p>\n<p> <\/p>\n<p>In the U.S., legal fees for a funding round often range from $30,000 to $50,000 and beyond. Many founders turn to SAFEs as a cost-effective alternative. SeedLegals offers an even better solution: for a fraction of the cost and with almost the same ease as creating a SAFE, founders can complete a full funding round or a SeedSAFE directly on the platform.<\/p>\n<p> <\/p>\n<p>SeedLegals also assists U.K. startups in expanding into the U.S. market. The platform offers guidance on fundraising from U.S. investors through various instruments, including funding rounds, SeedFAST, SeedNOTE, or a U.K.-law version of the YC SAFE. The SeedLegals platform includes unlimited commercial and founder support from the team. For legal advice, SeedLegals has partnered with a law firm to offer a seamless platform-plus-legal-advice experience.<\/p>\n<p> <\/p>\n<p><strong>About SeedLegals<\/strong><br \/>\nSeedLegals is a leading platform for automated legal documents and fundraising solutions.

QSBS can only apply to \"stock,\" and it\u2019s not certain whether the Internal Revenue Service (IRS) classifies a SAFE as \"stock\". This distinction is important because of the requirement to hold QSBS for five years to achieve the full benefit. If a SAFE is considered \"stock,\" the five-year clock starts from the moment the investor enters into the SAFE. If not, the clock only starts from when the SAFE converts to equity in the company at the point it\u2019s issued to the investor. <br \/>\r\n<br \/>\r\nSo, it depends on how the IRS classifies it. The Y Combinator SAFE, for instance, is intended to be treated as \"stock,\" but this characterization isn\u2019t binding on the IRS. If you\u2019re a SAFE investor and want to ensure you get QSBS relief sooner, you should consider converting the SAFEs into stock as soon as possible. This way, you reduce the uncertainty around whether the SAFE itself is treated as \"stock\u201d."},{"question":"How do I assure my investors that they\u2019ll get QSBS?","answer":"It\u2019s important to check you qualify before issuing QSBS to your investors, your employees or yourself. Your investors might expect representations and warranties in the investment documents which state the stock they\u2019ll be receiving meets QSBS requirements.<br \/>\r\n<br \/>\r\nWe\u2019ve written this article on <a href=\"https:\/\/seedlegals.com\/us\/resources\/qsbs-for-investors\/\" target=\u201d_blank\u201d>QSBS for investors<\/a> which you can share with any current or potential investors. It covers the benefits of QSBS and what they should do to qualify."},{"question":"If I\u2019m issuing stock as part of a fundraise, does the $75 million limit for QSBS include the money I\u2019m raising?","answer":"Yes, the $75 million gross assets limit for QSBS does include the funding you\u2019re receiving. So, if the company\u2019s assets, including the new funds, are more than $75 million, the stock will not qualify as QSBS. But if you issue stock that qualifies as QSBS, and further down the line the company\u2019s gross assets exceed $75 million, this doesn\u2019t affect the QSBS status of the stock issued before. <br \/>\r\n<br \/>\r\nIf your fundraise takes you over the $75 million limit, you can deal with this by issuing stock in tranches. The company can issue a first tranche of QSBS that keeps the company below the $75 million limit. Then, a day or more after, it can issue a second tranche of non-QSBS which can take the company above the $75 million limit. This ensures you can issue as much QSBS as possible without risking its eligibility."}]}}],"ctas":{"hide_default_benefits_block":false,"hide_default_customers_testimonial":false,"hide_default_two_col_cta":true},"page_footer":{"hide_footer_cta":false,"footer_cta_overrides":{"heading":"","heading_max_width":"","buttons":false,"logos":false,"background_color":"","text_color":""},"landing_page_footer":"standard"}},"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v28.5 - https:\/\/yoast.com\/product\/yoast-seo-wordpress\/ -->\n<title>QSBS\u2014the tax incentive most founders don\u2019t know | SeedLegals<\/title>\n<meta name=\"description\" content=\"Unlock the incredible tax incentive most founders and investors don\u2019t know.
