File Form 568 and schedule IW (income worksheet)
Pay the $800 annual tax - either mail FTB3522 voucher or pay via the FTB Web Pay portal
If your gross receipts (before expenses) is over $250,000 there is an LLC fee in addition.

LLC is a legal entity. For your taxes, if you did not elect to be treated as a corporation and you have no other owners, you can file a Schedule C with your personal income tax return.

For CA:

If you are filing a Sch C, the business from federal is reported on your Form 540. Otherwise, you are filling out a business return for federal and state in the business software.

The TurboTax forms availability tool indicates that Form 568 is available and supported for e-filing but Form 3522, the payment voucher, is not. Schedule K-1 (568) is not supported for e-filing.

Regarding California Form 568, Limited Liability Company Return of Income, if this is for a single member LLC, TurboTax will normally create Form 568 based on the answers to the questions entered in the Schedule C or E section in the Federal return and in the California interview as long as the activity was identified as a SM LLC.

Depending on how you answer questions in the Schedule C section, it may generate automatically. If not, you can bring up the form by going to Forms mode by clicking the button at the top right, then clicking Open Form and entering "568".

Once the form is generated and populated from the interview questions, to make additional entries on California Form 568, such as the employer ID number, you can then switch to Forms mode by clicking on Forms at the top when you are in step by step. Click on Open Form at the top of the list of forms, then enter "568" in the entry field that appears.

Form 568 can either be e-filed or mailed to:

Franchise Tax Board

PO Box 942857

Sacramento, CA 94257-0501
