The collected information shows clear, state-specific requirements and standard delegation mechanisms you must cover in the blog and newsletter content. Key findings (summarized below) include:

Registered agent rules and filings with the WA Secretary of State;

Department of Revenue third-party/tax-authority delegation processes (Pre-Assigned Access Code (PAC) and Confidential Tax Information Authorization form);

Business Licensing Service (BLS) role in local business licensing and the typical delegation model for city endorsements; 4) program-specific delegation examples (Paid Leave employer agent power of attorney); and 5) filing forms and timing rules for changing or resigning agents. I also captured the exact forms, filing paths and contact/action steps you will need to include in practical guidance, checklists, and sample templates for client use.
