Frequently Asked Questions
An S-Corporation is a special type of corporation that meets specific Internal Revenue Code requirements. It allows income to pass through to shareholders, avoiding double taxation on corporate income.
To qualify for S-Corporation status, your corporation must meet certain criteria, including having no more than 100 shareholders, all of whom must be U.S. citizens or residents, and having only one class of stock.
The kit includes essential documents such as a checklist for S-Corporation status, notices for shareholder meetings, affidavits, and minutes of meetings, all tailored for compliance with state laws.
Yes, an existing corporation can elect to be treated as an S-Corporation by filing Form 2553 with the IRS, provided it meets the eligibility requirements outlined in the S-Corporation Status Kit.
S-Corporations generally avoid double taxation, as income is passed through to shareholders who report it on their personal tax returns. This can result in potential tax savings for the owners.
