As a follow-up on my question regarding filing as a disregarded entity and using Schedule C of the Form 1040, if I am not in one of the nine common law states where filing as a Disregarded Entity is not an issue, what about the other 41 states? I've read on a couple of blogs/forums that if you are in one of those 41 states then it's not clear whether or not that (disregarded entity) is an approved filing option. There is some that believe you can file using that method where others say conservative CPA's won't recommend it. I would like to get a more definitive opinion with references (if possible) if this is possible for a filer who lives in Pennsylvania (non-common law state) and the rental property is in Florida (also non-common law state) where the LLC is filed. Again we are filing a joint return.
