Professional Corporation in New Jersey — annual report filing missed

I'm dealing with a situation in New Jersey and need some guidance.

annual report filing missed. I've been dealing with this for about 4 weeks now and the situation isn't improving.

What worked for me was escalating to a supervisor/manager. It took 1-3 months but was worth it.
