    Anyone here have an LLC and pay quarterly taxes?

    I formed an LLC a few months ago and Im now writing a check for my quarterly taxes.

    In the past I just put my name and social security # on the check.

    But now do I write my name and EIN number on the check and send it in? Or do I continue with my personal name and SSN?

    thanks

    Personal SS#. The quarterly taxes are for yourself, not your business. An LLC passes everything on to your personal taxes.

      Been using this site for the year so far, and it works out great. A few clicks and your done, and no paperwork to deal with.

            I file my quarterly via telefile. So I have no idea. It was for a business I never did anything with due to a falling out I had with a partner. I kept the name and file zero every quarter, so no need for checks. I may decide to give it a go again sometime down the line.

              No such thing in Canada, I think. We have other types of corporations.

                  FWWIW, I don't use an LCC. I use an S-corp and though the taxes pass through, I am an employee and the company has the obligation to pay my personal taxes just as any company would. The advantage of an S-corp is you/the company only has to pay SS/Medicare tax on the portion my company pays me as salary, NOT the full amount the company earns.
                  I don't always drink beer, but when I do, I wish I was drinking wine instead.

                    A few clicks? I have mine scheduled to automatically pay through the government's website.

                      Exactly, my accountant set mine up as "an LLC setup as an S corp" to take advantage of tax breaks.

                      But yeah I would call and see exactly what you should do, taxes arent a guessing matter.

                      Good Luck.

                        Big pimpin. And this is all 100% allowed by the IRS, so you're not sweating your balls off.
