Glad to help @AniTar1 , thank you as well for the information. There's a Los Angeles City Business Tax as well, here's how it works:  LACBT and this is the link to file the return: Annual Business Tax Return E-Filing (please listen to the video before you start e-filing the return). Also, here's how the Form looks like for your review: LACBT Form  

 

To summarize you have to file the following based on your business location:

  • Federal Tax Return, Form 1040 (including Schedule C)
  • Form 540 California Tax Return (filed with your 1040) 
  • Sales and Use Tax (separately filed from your 1040/540 tax returns)
  • Los Angeles City Business Tax Return (separately filed from your 1040/540 tax returns)

Hope this helps you, 

Laura
