Got questions?

We have answers to the most popular questions from our customers. If you can't find an answer to your question, please contact us.

Should I file as S Corp or C Corp?

As to which is better, theres no one size fits all. Electing as an S-corps may be better if your company provides a service to its customers and you have other employees. A C-corp may be better if you plan to bring on bigger investors. Its generally not a good idea to hold real estate in an entity that is an S-corp.

Is there a difference between 1120 and 1120S?

Both C and S corporations must file a federal income tax return. C corporations use Form 1120 to calculate their taxes due. S corporations use Form 1120S as an information return. S corporations must also prepare a form 10 K-1 for each shareholder to include with their individual returns.

What is the difference between 1120 and 1120S?

When a business is legally structured as a corporation, it must also choose between a C-Corp or an S-Corp status. In the U.S., C-corporations report their tax information using Form 1120. A business organized as an S-Corp will file a different annual tax form, Form 1120-S.

What is the best way to file 1120S?

Form 1120-S can be filed electronically through the IRSs e-file system or with most tax prep software like most tax forms. You can also file the form by mail.

Does Schedule K-1 need to be filed with 1120S?

The S corporation must file Form 1120-S annually, along with a completed Schedule K-1 for each shareholder. This form must be filed by the 15th day of the third month following the end of the corporations tax year (usually March 15 for calendar year filers).
