LLC Paperwork
Advantages of Forming an LLC
-
PROTECTION FROM PERSONAL DEBTS AND LIABILITIES
For businesses that choose an LLC business structure, their personal assets are considered separate from the personal interest invested in the company. This means that debts and liabilities incurred are the responsibility of the business rather than its members.
-
PASS-THROUGH TAXATION
LLCs are taxed on a pass-through basis, meaning the profits and losses of LLCs are paid out by each individual owner and are only reflected on their personal income tax returns. LLCs with multiple owners, however, must file a purely informational tax return for their business, while LLCs held by a single member do not.
-
FLEXIBLE TAX STATUS
Members of an LLC are able to determine how the company is viewed as a taxable entity. LLCs are either federally taxed as a partnership or a sole proprietor, depending on whether it’s a multi-or single-member LLC. The business may also, however, choose to be taxed as an S- or C-corporation.
-
MINIMAL FORMALITIES
Unlike other business structures, LLCs are beholden to very few regulations, such as filing an annual report and paying any applicable state-level taxes.
This service will include:
-
Business Name Search in Federal and State Database
