Business Formation

Form 2553-Election by a Small Business Corporation

Asked onFriday, October 20, 2023 by Lance

I hired a WY registered agent company to form my corporation and they are asking me to complete form 2553. I want the company to be qualified as a woman owned business and I listed my wife as president and myself as treasurer and secretary. Specifically, column L of the form is asking me to list the "number of shares or percentage of ownership" and I'm not sure what to put there. Would I list her as having more shares than me since I want the business to qualify as woman owned? Next, column M is asking for a social security number or EIN of each shareholder. Since the company does have an EIN, would I use that for each of us, or do I need to use our SSN's? If we use our SSN's, how does this affect the anonymity we are trying to accomplish by forming a corporation in the first place? Thank you, Lance

Not clear on this issue

Asked onWednesday, October 18, 2023 by rebecca

My company has changed ownership and the new company has changed my deductions. I always gross $110 a week and net $95, single no deductions. The new company is paying me $73. They have stated it is considered supplemental and tax at 22% . I normally have zero taken out for federal but have optioned $3 weekly. I don't really understand why this change (i have checked tax tables and $0 is correct). My question is since nothing on my deductions has changed(this is my only income) will I get back the additional monies on my income tax return?

Utilising taxes losses effectively

Asked onWednesday, October 18, 2023 by Dwayne

Hi, I am looking for assistance with utilising a significant (to me anyway) amour of losses from previous years taxes and am very much struggling to find ways of managing this without having to write down to zero (ie using my losses on tax free income). I have over $60k in losses and unfortunately didn’t earn as much as I wanted last year to get as high an income as possible for these losses. I would greatly appreciate knowing my options. I am also very keen on finding an accountant/planner that can assist with an effective tax and overall wealth strategy moving forward in better income years so would really appreciate advice and contacts
