Miscellaneous

One LLC or Two LLCs?

Asked onWednesday, January 17, 2024 by MARK

My wife and I work as self-employed dance instructors but work at different studios. We live in Maryland. This is my wife's only source of income, whereas I also have a full-time (salaried) job. We're looking to take advantage of the tax help provided by LLCs, but should we set up one LLC for the two of us, or should we set up one for each of us? I make around $80,000 p.y. at my FT job and around $3,000 self-employed teaching, while my wife tends to Max out at around $20,000.

Asked onSaturday, January 13, 2024 by Erin Elizabeth

Hello, can you please tell me if an LLC has no net income can they still receive the 2024 tax credit incentive for electric trucks (up to $40,000), effectively receiving money from the government? Our LLC is only owned by my husband and myself. It is a pass-through LLC and presented on our personal tax returns. If net income was made, it would be presented on our personal tax returns. Can this credit be taken and reduce/increase our total personal tax return? Thank you!
