Hi,

I have a client that started up a single member LLC last year that is owned solely by his S corp. All income and expenses flowed through the SMLLC. I'm assuming we just run these figures through the S corp being that the SMLLC is a disregarded entity. Does anyone know if there's a spefic form or way to notate this to the IRS on the 1120S?

 

Thanks!

I always attach an additional statement explaining the SMLLC owned by the entity, reporting also their name and EIN.  No clue if it's ever read but never had a problem doing it this way.

This doesn't make sense.   Are you sure he didn't file an S Corp election for the SMLLC ?     Or is the SMLLC a shareholder of the SCorp?

It makes perfect sense.

The more I know the more I don’t know.

@sjrcpa  Help me understand.    Why form an SMLLC to be owned by an SCorp ?

So just report the SMLLC's income expenses on the Scorps 1120S? No need anything to notate to the IRS.
