A single member limited liability company (SMLLC) is filed on your individual tax return using Schedule C.  A business allows you to deduct the costs necessary to obtain the income.  The law explains that 'you must be engaged in the activity to produce a profit'.  The test under IRS tax law is that you must show a profit three out of every five consecutive years to be considered a business (a test and not definite, also time, investment and other details are considered).
