Owning a Single-Member LLC means you have flexibility in how your business is taxed—but it also comes with unique filing & reporting obligations. Our expert tax professionals ensure accurate preparation, timely reporting and optimized tax filing, maximize deductions, and keep your LLC compliant with the IRS; saving you from the hefty non-compliance and accuracy related penalties.
Get Started Now.By default, a Single-Member LLC is taxed as a disregarded entity, meaning business income is reported on the owner’s personal tax return (Form 1040, Schedule C). However, you can elect to be taxed as an S Corporation or C Corporation for potential tax benefits.
Most LLC owners must file:
✅ Form 1040 (Individual Tax Return) with Schedule C (Profit & Loss Statement)
✅ Schedule SE (Self-Employment Tax), if applicable
✅ Form 1099-NEC (if you paid independent contractors $600+)
If your LLC has employees or files excise taxes, you need an Employer Identification Number (EIN) from the IRS. If not, you can file taxes using your SSN (Social Security Number).
