Business taxes are where small mistakes get expensive. Entity selection, payroll filings, estimated payments, and pass-through reporting all interact, and a missed deadline can mean steep penalties. We prepare returns for every common entity type and make sure your business is compliant, optimized, and ready for whatever the IRS sends.
Entities and returns we handle
| Entity | Primary return | Owner reporting |
|---|---|---|
| Sole proprietor / single-member LLC | Schedule C with Form 1040 | On personal return |
| Partnership / multi-member LLC | Form 1065 | Schedule K-1 to each partner |
| S-Corporation | Form 1120-S | Schedule K-1 to each shareholder |
| C-Corporation | Form 1120 | Taxed at entity level |
Beyond the annual return
Compliance is more than one filing a year. We help with the moving parts that most often cause problems:
- Quarterly estimated taxes so you are not hit with underpayment penalties;
- Payroll tax filings (Forms 941 and 940) — the area the IRS pursues most aggressively;
- Reasonable-compensation analysis for S-corp owners;
- Maximizing deductions for equipment, vehicles, home office, and retirement contributions.
Payroll taxes are the IRS's top priority
Unpaid payroll (trust fund) taxes can make owners and officers personally liable through the Trust Fund Recovery Penalty. If your business has fallen behind on 941 deposits, address it immediately — this is among the fastest-escalating tax problems. See IRS — Employment Taxes.
When the business already owes
If your company has unfiled returns or a balance due, we file the missing returns and negotiate the back taxes — through a business installment agreement or, where the business genuinely cannot pay, an Offer in Compromise. Because we both prepare returns and handle resolution, nothing falls through the cracks.
Keep your business compliant and your taxes minimized.
