No, you cannot be both a sole proprietor and a corporation simultaneously, as these are distinct legal structures.

The advantages to doing business as a sole proprietor include: 1) No formal filing with the state is required for a sole proprietorship, and the sole proprietor need not file separate income tax returns for the business. Instead, he reports the profit or loss on his personal income tax return, so the accounting and bookkeeping requirements are very simple. 2) A sole proprietor does not have to share the decision making process with other owners. He controls the management of the business. 3) A sole proprietor can freely sell his business.
