Business Tax Filing for LLCs in Manassas, VA

How Your LLC Is Taxed (And Why It Matters)
Your LLC's legal structure and tax classification are two different things. Here's how the IRS views the most common LLC setups:
Single-Member LLC (Disregarded Entity)
If you're the only owner, the IRS treats your LLC as a "disregarded entity." Your business income and expenses are reported on Schedule C, which attaches to your personal Form 1040. You pay self-employment tax on net profit.

LLCs with two or more members default to partnership taxation. The LLC files Form 1065 and issues K-1s to each member. Members then report their share of income on their personal returns. The LLC itself doesn't pay income tax—it "passes through" to the owners.

Some LLCs elect S-Corp taxation by filing Form 2553 with the IRS. This can reduce self-employment taxes if done properly—but it requires the owner(s) to take reasonable compensation as W-2 wages. The LLC files Form 1120S and issues K-1s to shareholders.

FAQs About LLC Business Tax Filing
How do I know what type of tax return my LLC needs to file?
It depends on how your LLC is classified for tax purposes. Single-member LLCs file on Schedule C (attached to your personal return). Multi-member LLCs default to partnership taxation (Form 1065). LLCs that have elected S-Corp status file Form 1120S. We review your formation documents and IRS elections to confirm the correct filing.
Should my LLC elect S-Corp status?
In some cases, S-Corp election can reduce self-employment taxes—but it also adds complexity and requires reasonable compensation. We analyze your specific income, expenses, and goals to determine if S-Corp status makes sense for you.
What if my LLC operates in multiple states?
Multi-state LLCs may need to file returns or pay franchise taxes in each state where they do business. We handle Virginia, DC, Maryland, and other state filings regularly—and ensure proper income apportionment.
What documents do I need to provide for my LLC return?
At minimum, we need your profit and loss statement, balance sheet, and prior-year return. If your books aren't organized, we can help get them tax-ready first. We send a tailored document checklist after your Tax Fit Call.
When is my LLC return due?
For single-member LLCs, the deadline is April 15 (same as personal returns). For multi-member LLCs and LLCs taxed as S-Corps, the deadline is March 15. Extensions are available if you need more time.
What happens if I missed prior-year LLC filings?
We can help you catch up on prior-year returns. The IRS charges penalties for late filings, but getting compliant is always better than staying non-compliant. We'll assess the situation and recommend the best path forward.
Can you help if my LLC has partners or investors?
Yes. We prepare partnership returns (Form 1065) and generate K-1s for all members. We also coordinate with members' individual accountants if needed to ensure everything flows correctly.
