FAQ
An LLC can achieve pass-through taxation status without any of those restrictions. LLCs also offer more income tax choices in how you are taxed. By default, LLCs enjoy pass-through taxation under IRS rules. However, by making an IRS election, you could have your LLC taxed as a C corporation or an S Corporation.
LLC owners must pay self-employment taxes for all income. S-corp owners may pay less on this tax, provided they pay themselves a "reasonable salary." LLCs can have an unlimited number of members, while S-corps are limited to 100 shareholders.
In an LLC, individuals with an ownership share are called members. In a corporation, they are called shareholders. One of the advantages an LLC has over a corporation is that in many states, a creditor cannot collect a member's dividends, whereas in a corporation dividends can be collected from shareholders.
One of the main reasons to form a corporation or LLC for a small business is to avoid personal liability for the business' debts. As we mentioned earlier, corporations and LLCs have their own legal existence. It's the corporation or LLC that owns the business, its assets, debts, and liabilities.
Probably the most obvious advantage to forming an LLC is protecting your personal assets by limiting the liability to the resources of the business itself. In most cases, the LLC will protect your personal assets from claims against the business, including lawsuits.There is also the tax benefit to an LLC.
A limited liability company (LLC) is not a separate tax entity like a corporation; instead, it is what the IRS calls a "pass-through entity," like a partnership or sole proprietorship.The LLC itself does not pay federal income taxes, although some states impose an annual tax on LLCs.
Because distributions are taxed at both the corporate and the shareholder level, C corporations and their shareholders often end up paying more in taxes than S corporations or LLCs.
