[RPPTL-constructionlaw] Entity Conversion and Licensing Question

[RPPTL constructionlaw]

If A+ is a name change and the corporate document number is the same, look at filing a name change with DBPR. I don't think the tax status impacts the licensing.

Subject: [RPPTL-constructionlaw] Entity Conversion and Licensing Question

Interested in folks’ thoughts on this:

Entity A, Inc., converts to Entity A+, LLC. Same Federal Tax ID number. Not an asset sale, but the entity is simply converted from a Sub-S corporation to an LLC under the applicable statutes permitting such a conversion.

Entity A had qualifiers in the trades where it worked (MEP). Is Entity A+, LLC properly licensed upon the conversion without further DBPR/CILB filings?
