Hello

Client decided to revoke S corp status back to Schedule C as disregarded entity 

Just to confirm if that is all we need: 

efile Final 1120 S for 2025 and Final K1 (discontinued operations as of 12/31/2025)

efile 8832 form changing to disregarded entity and revocation letter will mail it by Mar 15th this year

anything else?

thank you for your help

    When you revoke an S Corp election you are now a C Corp.

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

    I could be wrong, but don't think Form 8832 is e-filed, it is paper filed.

    Despite what some preparers think, there is no need for a separate revocation letter; just file the 8832.

    However, double check that that they are eligible to revert back to a Disregarded Entity by checking if the S-election made either more than 5 years ago or on the LLC formation date.
