Out of state taxes for LLC

[vningjc]

Hi, 

Last year I was a part-time resident of Washington DC (before that I was living abroad), and while in DC, I registered an LLC in Kansas, which didn't have any business transactions in 2024. 

What do I need to do for the LLC in Kansas in terms of filing taxes, both federally and on the state level? I think I just include it in my personal federal and DC returns, do I need to file anything separately for Kansas?

Thanks, 

Victor

You don't need to file a Kansas personal income tax return since you earned no income from that state. You do need to file a Kansas annual report for the LLC, but no company income tax return need be filed if you don't have any assets or income in the LLC.

Thank you. 

A follow up question, when I do file next year, how do I avoid double taxation in DC and Kansas? Thanks.

You will complete your out of state tax return first. Then, on your resident state return look for a credit for taxes paid to other states and use that to get a credit for taxes paid to the other state.
