The Michigan Certificate of Amendment To Articles of Incorporation For Use By Ecclesiastical Corps is a document filed with the Michigan Department of Licensing and Regulatory Affairs (LARA) to make changes to the Articles of Incorporation of an ecclesiastical corporation. This document is used to amend the Articles of Incorporation and is required for any amendments that involve changing the name of the corporation, increasing or decreasing the number of directors, changing the purpose of the corporation, or updating other important information. There are two types of Michigan Certificate of Amendment To Articles of Incorporation For Use By Ecclesiastical Corps: the Standard Amendment and the Short Form Amendment. The Standard Amendment form provides a more detailed approach to amending the Articles of Incorporation and requires more information than the Short Form Amendment.
