CYPRESS AUTHORITY · SERVICES
LLC + Authority · One bundle · One timeline

LLC formed.
Authority filed and tracked.

Form your LLC and file your USDOT/MC authority in one bundle — $1050 all-in. The 21-day FMCSA vetting window is monitored on a tightening cadence so nothing slips. Already incorporated? Authority-only at $699.

  • Legal name verified once — used byte-identical across LLC, EIN, USDOT, MC, BOC-3
  • 21-day FMCSA vetting clock polled at T-21 / T-14 / T-10 / T-5 / T-2 / T-0
  • Pass-through state and federal fees itemized at cost — never marked up

State LLC filing fees and federal pass-throughs (UCR, HVUT, MCS-150) are itemized and billed at cost. No relabeling of government fees as Cypress charges.

Why the bundle

Three things go wrong on DIY filings. Cypress closes each one.

The FMCSA URS form is free. The work around it — the verified data going in, the 21-day vetting clock that follows, and the BOC-3 / insurance steps that follow that — is what carriers pay Cypress to run end-to-end.

21d
Vetting alarm

21-day FMCSA window monitored to the minute

Every authority filing has a 21-day FMCSA vetting deadline. Cypress polls SAFER on a tightening cadence — daily, then every 6 hours, then hourly as T-0 approaches — and surfaces every status change in your portal.

T-21 · T-14 · T-10 · T-5 · T-2 · T-0
EIN
Verified data

EIN, registry, and address validated before filing

Your filing package is built from verified inputs — EIN confirmed with the IRS, business name cross-checked with the state registry, principal address validated with USPS. The package goes on the wire only after each input clears.

Filed at FMCSA, not through an aggregator

USDOT, MC, BOC-3, UCR, MCS-150 — every filing goes directly to the regulator through Cypress's registered network. No wholesale resale layer; no margin stacked on government fees.

From signup to MC-active

Three steps on the surface. Twelve checkpoints underneath.

The customer-facing path is short. The work behind it — verification, name-match guards, the 21-day vetting poll, BOC-3 dispatch — runs on a documented timeline.

  1. 01

    Tell us about your business

    One guided intake — legal name, owner, equipment, intended operating scope. The legal name you pick is the legal name on every downstream filing.

  2. 02

    We verify and prepare

    EIN with the IRS, registry with your state, address with USPS, ID match for the owner. Your URS application is pre-populated and shown to you before submission.

  3. 03

    We file, track, and keep current

    USDOT and MC go on the wire, the 21-day vetting clock is monitored, BOC-3 and insurance routed at activation, and every recurring filing after that runs on one calendar.

Bundle vs. DIY URS

The URS form is free. Everything around it isn't.

Filing on FMCSA's URS portal directly is a legitimate option. Here's an honest, side-by-side of what's actually different.

Step Cypress bundle — $1050 DIY URS — $0 + your time
LLC formation Filed in your state — included in bundle Separately, often via a different registered-agent service
EIN Filed with the IRS as part of the bundle Filed by the carrier — often a re-file after a typo or SSN/EIN mismatch
URS / USDOT / MC Pre-populated from verified data, submitted by Cypress Free to file on the FMCSA URS portal — but every field is the carrier's responsibility
21-day vetting window Polled on a tightening cadence; status surfaced in portal Carrier checks SAFER manually; missed cancellations restart the clock
BOC-3 process-agent name match Byte-identical legal name guard from formation through BOC-3 Common rejection — typo or punctuation mismatch invalidates the designation
Pass-through fees Itemized at cost — never marked up or relabeled Carrier pays each regulator directly
After authority is granted Recurring calendar — UCR, MCS-150, 2290, IRP, IFTA, BOC-3 — on one bill Carrier tracks each renewal individually

Government fees pass through at cost on both sides. The Cypress price covers the work of getting them filed correctly the first time.
