    Estimated tax payments. Each year is so different. I chose to pay the penalty because if you over pay they never give it back to you. I’d rather keep my hard earned money than give it away to someone who never answers the phone. 👍

    "If we expect to owe more than $1,000 in self-employment taxes, the IRS expects us to pay quarterly estimated tax payments." How do we know what to expect our self-employment taxes to be? And is the amount of each estimated payment simply one-quarter of the year's total? For example, if we think our SE tax for 2021 is $1,200, do we pay $300 each quarter?

    Confusing on how you actually run the LLC as a start up. For several years a company could actually be in the red until you gain customers and exposure. This would mean that you might invest more into the business than you take out. Is it normal to have a scenario where you invest but do not pay yourself in the initial years?

I had expenses that would be considered write offs in 2021, however I have no revenue since I do not have the full license yet? Can I still write these off for the business even if the business didn’t bring in any revenue? My wages for the year were from a normal w2

      I believe you can because it's considered a business loss. All start-up cost are tax deductible expenses. (Losses) your not technically liable until your making income that can be taxed. Based on the business there might be limits to deductions though, pct wise. Good luck, ski's the limit...

      I'm not a professional but from what I've learned I would think it depends on who is investing most money (who has the most risk at stake and therefore should have the right to control business decisions). You can always file as a single member LLC and appoint your husband as the manager ("manager-managed", NOT "member-managed"). Then I believe, if what I've learned is accurate, he will be able to make decisions on the business' behalf, but the final word still goes to you as the owner

    I’m preparing my taxes for 2019. I know, I’m so behind. I had an LLC at the time but didn’t realize the LLC had been forfeited due to my failure to file tax documents. I was curious, if I incurred expenses for my business, such as advertising, etc., am I still able to deduct those expenses from my AGI/W2 income although the LLC was technically “forfeited” and I also didn’t make any profits from the business? I paid for an 800 number, website and business cards. Can I still deduct those expenses to reduce my taxable income or not?
