How does it work?
Twitch talent agency
On twitch, my talents are working as independent contractors under my sole proprietorship. If they swap their payout and tax onboarding information to being under my individual name and EIN, is that sufficient (they are working under my company, which does not have a larger LLC), or should be paying me separately for the services to avoid any issues and misunderstandings

Non resident owned company tax
Dear Sir/Madam, I hope this email finds you well. I am writing to inquire about the tax obligations of my company, MONA LLC, as a foreign investor in the USA, specifically in the state of Wyoming. I have already applied for a tax identification number (TIN), and I am expecting to receive it soon. However, I would appreciate further clarification regarding my tax responsibilities. My primary concern relates to conducting business in other countries from MONA LLC. I have consulted with several advisors who informed me that I may not be required to pay taxes in the USA for such international business activities. However, I wanted to confirm this information with your esteemed organization to ensure its accuracy. Additionally, I would like to inquire about the specific documents or filings that MONA LLC needs to share with the Wyoming government on an annual basis, beyond what is already mentioned on your official website. I believe it is crucial to stay compliant and fulfill all necessary requirements, and your guidance in this matter would be greatly appreciated. Thank you in advance for your assistance. I look forward to receiving your response and any relevant information that will help me better understand MONA LLC's tax obligations in Wyoming. Sincerely,
