Delaware annual report saved session is not filed

A Delaware eCorp workflow guide for saved session ID, file number, submission, payment and confirmation receipt.

By Yann LephayPublished · Last updated

Summary

A saved Delaware annual report session is not the same as a filed report. A saved session helps you return to an unfinished workflow with the session ID and file number. Filing requires official submission, payment where due, and a confirmation or receipt from Delaware.

Saved is not submitted, and submitted is not proven without confirmation.

What to preserve

Keep the file number, saved session ID, review copy, submission confirmation, authorization number, receipt, payment record, and any Delaware technical-support email.

Example

A user enters annual report facts on February 28, saves a session, and leaves before payment. On March 2, penalties may be visible because the report was not completed by the deadline.

When to stop

Stop for lost session ID, duplicate charge, missing confirmation copy, payment failure, after-hours portal errors, technical support requests, penalties, interest or official filing disputes.

Common questions

Is my Delaware annual report filed if I saved a session?

No. Treat a saved session as unfinished until the official workflow shows submission and payment confirmation.

Can Delaware Franchise Desk recover my saved session?

No. Session IDs, portal access, submission and payment confirmation belong to Delaware's official eCorp workflow.
