New single member LLC business in TX first year filing. Spouse has 1099 for owner operator truck driver work through our LLC and we have a DBA to file taxes for our lounge/bar. I have w2 for work outside of our business and plan to file separate personal taxes for me.
The default tax treatment of a single-member LLC is a sole proprietorship. To be treated as an S corporation, you would file Form 2553 to make the election. If you didn't make an election for the LLC to be treated as an S corporation, you would need to file income and expenses on Schedule C.
You have 75 days from the date the LLC is formed to make the election to be treated as an S corp from the beginning. If you haven't made the election and you intended for the LLC to be treated as an S corp, you might be able to file a late election if you have reasonable cause. If you want to to do this, you'd need to file the 1120S this year instead of the Schedule C.
