<p class="MsoNormal">Hi All,<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">My client is the sole owner of a C Corp, and wants to transfer (gift) the business to his two sons. Is there anything that needs to be filed with the WA Secretary of State or other state entity? I see the Dept of Revenue Controlling Interest
Transfer Return, but it appears that’s just for real property. IS there something I’m missing here? Any advice would be appreciated<o:p></o:p></p>
