I am looking for a qualified tax professional or CPA to manage the annual compliance and accounting for my Delaware Single-Member LLC.
As the owner is a foreign national (non-US resident), I need someone specifically experienced with the reporting requirements for foreign-owned US entities to ensure I remain in full standing with both the State of Delaware and the IRS.
It's not a complicated system and our accounts are fairly basic. It's a small LLC we use for a few online things only. So we'd just need the basic submissions done.
Key Responsibilities:
1) Delaware Franchise Tax: Handle the annual filing and the $300 payment/report before the March 1st deadline.
2) IRS Federal Filing: Prepare and file Form 5472 and Form 1120 (as required for foreign-owned SMLCCs) to report reportable transactions.
3) Accounting & Clean-up: Review and finalize first-year accounts to ensure tax readiness.
Zoho Books Optimization: Configure my Zoho Books (We could use another software as well if there's a better option) environment to automate future tracking and make subsequent filings seamless.
What I’m looking for:
1) Proven experience with Form 5472 and international tax compliance.
2) Ideally, expertise in Zoho Books (setup), but not critical as we can use other software.
3) A long-term partner: I’m looking for someone to manage this for the next several years as the business grows.
Please reply with:
1) A brief summary of your experience with foreign-owned US LLCs.
2) Your familiarity with Zoho Books.
3) Your estimated timeline for the initial setup and first-year filing.
I look forward to meeting you.
