    Which LLC do you recommend for a small coffee shop business? With or without the S Corp?

    • @ginnysilver
      @ginnysilver  9 місяців тому

      This depends on your income. If you have enough regular steady profit to hire yourself as an employee, put yourself on payroll for a regular reasonable salary and cover those expenses then an S corp may save you money in self employment tax - always check with a tax professional before electing s corp status

    I haven't even started my business yet, I just wanted to sell T-shirts but I haven't started yet. No website or anything, I just registered as a LLC, and now I need to be a sole proprietor, because I will have to pay a 800$ tax next year, and I don't expect I will have this. I live in California.

    • @ginnysilver
      @ginnysilver  2 роки тому +1

      If you formed your LLC - you would be required to pay the annual tax for the year - consult a CPA for questions surrounding this. The FTB states that the yearly tax will be due, even if you are not conducting business, until you cancel your LLC. You have until the 15th day of the 4th month from the date you file with the SOS to pay your first-year annual tax.
      This explains how to close your LLC: www.ftb.ca.gov/about-ftb/newsroom/tax-news/may-2018/how-to-close-a-california-business-entity.html

      That's not a tax deduction - unless you are an S corp or other etnity where you are your own EMPLOYEE, paying yourself a paycheck with FICA/payroll taxes etc.

    Hello Ginny, I received a letter from edd. It is a notice of amended unemployment insurance award. It seems as though I qualified for another year. It shows the amount of money I will be paid per week however I have not been able to certify.

    • @kat-communicationsmanagerf2348
      @kat-communicationsmanagerf2348 2 роки тому

      You nay need to call into EDD to clarify your situation. These are all of Ginny's calling suggestions: Claimyr is the easiest way to get through and protects you from dropped calls if it is a fit for you (affiliate link below saves you $5 on your first call) the feedback from subscribers has been overwhelmingly positive: join.claimyr.com/7d3d41 Is it safe: ua-cam.com/video/FyMFwfDM1Dk/v-deo.html
      Watch the 25 numbers to call EDD video and try all of the branch phone numbers, job centers, and other lines which may apply to your issue: ua-cam.com/video/QZTT-8LSLCM/v-deo.html
      Try the 134 trick which works for some with many tries: ua-cam.com/video/yPul6D-XX-M/v-deo.html
      Contact your assembly member if you can't get through - they have been very helpful in assisting many claimants in acting as a liaison between the claimant and EDD to help them get paid: findyourrep.legislature.ca.gov/

    • @ginnysilver
      @ginnysilver  2 роки тому

      Amended means they are changing something about a prior claim. I would make sure you are viewing the dates for the claim and understanding that PEUC, Fed Ed, and PUA have all ended. If it is a regular UI claim, new claims take up to 3 weeks to certify.

    Do you know if your name of the business can still be an entity in a S - Corp. Some people don't want their real name to be known?

    • @ginnysilver
      @ginnysilver  2 роки тому

      An S-Corp is just a taxation classification that can be elected for an LLC. An LLC would have a registered business name - yes. However your name would be listed on the secretary of state and articles of incorporation filings which are public filings required for an LLC.
