In a two member LLC how do you file taxes to be treated as a partnership?

LLC is Limited Liability Company. It's allowed by state statute. But the IRS doesn't recognize LLC as a classification for federal tax purposes. Under IRS Default Rules, a Limited Liability Company with at least two members is considered as a partnership. Form 8832 is Entity Classification Election. An LLC with two or more members would only have to file Form 8832 if the LLC didn't want to file as a partnership. As a partnership, the LLC would file Form 1065 (U.S. Return of Partnership Income). For more information, go to www.irs.gov/formspubs for Publication 541 (Partnerships) and Publication 3402 (Tax Issues for Limited Liability Companies).

What tax form should an LLC owned by a husband and wife file to report income and expenses?

LLC (Limited Liability Company) is a type of business that's allowed by state statute. But LLC isn't recognized as a classification for federal tax purposes. This means that an LLC must file a tax return as a corporation, partnership, or sole proprietorship. An LLC with at least two members can choose to be classified as a corporation or as a partnership. If you choose corporation status, you must file Form 8832 (Entity Classification Election). You don't need to file Form 8832 if you're an LLC filing as a partnership. Corporations file Form 1120 (U.S. Corporation Income Tax Return). Partnerships file Form 1065 (U.S. Return of Partnership Income). Each partner's share of income, expenses, etc., is then entered on Schedule C (Profit or Loss from Businss). For more information, go to the IRS Small Business screen at www.irs.gov/business/small. Select from the left column A-Z Index for Business to view/print the article, Limited Liability Company (LLC).

What tax form do you use if filing as a single owner LLC?

LLC (Limited Liability Company) is a type of business that's allowed by state statute. But LLC isn't recognized as a classification for federal tax purposes. This means that an LLC must file a tax return as a corporation, partnership, or sole proprietorship. A single member LLC can choose to be classified as a corporation or as a 'disregarded entity' (i.e., disregarded as a business entity separate from its owner). The IRS Default Rule is for a single member LLC to be a 'disregarded entity'. If you follow the Default Rule, you don't have to file Form 8832 (Entity Classification Election). If you choose to be classified as a corporation, you must file Form 8832. In the 'disregarded entity' classification you report your LLC income, expenses, etc. on Schedule C (Profit or Loss from Business). Corporations file Form 1120 (U.S. Corporation Income Tax Return). For more information, go to the IRS Small Business screen at www.irs.gov/business/small. Select from the left column A-Z Index for Business to view/print the article, Limited Liability Company (LLC).


Do you have to file a separate federal or state tax return for an LLC?

It depends on how you have elected your LLC to be taxed. An LLC does not have its own tax return per se; it is taxed as either a sole proprietor, a partnership, or a corporation. If you have not made any election on how you want the LLC to be taxed, there are default rules: A Single-Member LLC (one owner): by default, is taxed as a sole proprietorship. In this case, the LLC would not have its own tax return -- its income and expenses would be reported on Schedule C of the owner's individual tax return (Form 1040). A Multi-Member LLC (more than one owner): by default, is taxed as a partnership. If this is the case, the LLC will file Form 1065 Partnership tax return. If the LLC does not want to fall into one of these two default classifications, they can also elect to be taxed as a corporation by filing Form 8832 "Entity Classification Election" with the IRS. If the LLC does this, they will file a corporate income tax return, Form 1120. The LLC can also elect to be taxed as a Subchapter-S Corporation by filing Form 2553 "Election by a Small Business Corporation" with the IRS. If the LLC does this, they will file an S-Corporation tax return, Form 1120-S. Most states do not require you to make an election on how you will be taxed, they simply say that they will follow whatever election that you make with the IRS. So, the first step is to determine which form you are required to file with the IRS and then you should do the same with the State. If you have not already done so, it would probably be wise for you to sit down with an Attorney or Accountant who can explain the pros and cons of each of these choices. Each tax structure has subtle differences and one may be preferable for you over the others.
