Yes agree!

I am thinking of going S Corp. I am a LLC right now. But after watching this. You told me just what my lawyer told me. Thank you for your advice. I will continue watching your videos. Very educational.

@nasty piglousy Yup

[@jamesadams6479]

Excellently broken-down! Thanks for making this so much easier to understand. It's also good to know you can start as an LLC and then move to an S-Corp with the right forms. I'm just starting this self-employed journey, so I hope an S-Corp will make sense in the not too distant future!

[@lesleybrown8204]

Yess! Watched this 2X with my 18 y/o and shared with family and friends. So well-organized, well-presented & easily digestible info - Darn great job y’all! 2021 is ours 🙏🏾❤️ 🙏🏽

[@LYFEAccounting]

That makes my heart smile. Glad you enjoyed it!

[@GojiCenter]

Could you guys make a video one day about how to switch from an LLC to "elected to be taxed as an S-Corp" ? That would be extremely helpful. (edit. Great video btw!)

[@LYFEAccounting]

Great suggestion! Will add that to the queue for you.

Great video! I recently made the switch to S-Corp and there were definitely quite a few steps (plus some expenses) to getting things set up. I'm hopeful and optimistic it will be worth it, though, and wish I'd done it sooner. Thanks for all the great info!

You saved me so much money just watching this video! I will definitely recommend you on my channel!

Yay! Thank you!

[@KBlakK]

Great information! I didn't know about the Self Employment tax issues. I'm currently a sole proprietorship planning on switching status to LLC but since my company will just be starting I think I'll pass on the S-corp option unless my actual sales far exceed my projections

[@LYFEAccounting]

🎯

[@UNDERTHEHOODPODCAST]

You can establish an LLC and still run as a sole prop if you really want to. When your self employment tax exceeds the tax burden of S Corp you can choose to convert your tax filing method to an S Corp.

[@freddiehernandez6292]

@@UNDERTHEHOODPODCAST so if your starting off S-corp will not be a good fit?

[@nickfrary424]

Great video! I’m classified as an S-corp- I don’t think you mentioned having to pay social security. I am required to pay $1600 quarterly, which seems like a lot but I’m told still saves money in the long run.

[@LYFEAccounting]

[@TaxmanTV]

Well done presentation. I would just offer you left out a critical piece about S-corps and qualified shareholders. Your list mentions US residents, but you forgot to mention that businesses (C-corp, S-corp-, partnerships) cannot be a shareholder in an S-corp, otherwise it automatically revokes the S status. Only US "individuals" and certain types of trusts can be shareholders in an S-corp. Very nice job mentioning the unreasonable compensation issue for S-corp owners. An often overlooked exposure area of taxes.

[@100thickalicwayz]

Thank you for your quick and easy-to-understand breakdown.

Need to clarify that there is a minimum S Corp tax or franchise tax. Of course there are thresholds for those taxes. Many small business can’t reach the thresholds but many do. Those do should already know their tax obligations👍💰✌️💪

[@rogerrucker6191]

You need to quickly clarify a few things. A Limited Liability Corporation (LLC) or a Corporation is a designation based on the state where you register your business. Being a C-Corp or an S-Corp is an IRS designation. A state registered LLC can have a C-Corp or an S-Corp designation with the IRS. Stating that you choose between an LLC and an S-Corp is very misleading and incorrect.
