I am trying to make an LLC and I'd like to know if I can just pick one state? even I live in FL?

Re: Llc
 

Yeah, you can make one where ever. I think all you need is an address - like a UPS store box.

Re: Llc
 

Go to your states Secretary of State website and read the requirements for setting up a Corp or LLC. At the minimum you are going to need an address/phone presence in the state, which is easy to get, but also an EIN from the IRS and your articles of incorporation setup.

Re: Llc
 

Note that if you're going to use one of the "preferential" states like DE or NV and those states are far from you, you should probably look into using a registered agent in the state you choose to manage the LLC paperwork for you.

Re: Llc
 

^^ I second what Phaz0rz says.

If you want to incorporate in a preferred state such as NV, DE, or WY, use a Registered Agent (RA) who can set everything up for you, for a fee of course.

Of these, Nevada is my personal favorite due to the low cost and ease of setup and maintaining the entity, as well as tax benefits.

It is easier just to get in Florida? do I still need UPS or PO box? I am looking way to process non complicated. Thank you

Re: Llc
 

Yeah, naturally it's going to be easiest to use your home state. Lots of bigger companies choose to go with one of the states without a state income tax which is why I mentioned those other states.

I always used my home state.. but I always wish I hadn't at tax time.

WY will be cheaper? how long to form llc of WY?

Re: Llc
 

You should probably call each state and figure out how much they cost.
I know NY is about $500

Re: Llc
 

I need open EIN first them LLC? When I open EIN and add all information will be real one right?

Re: Llc
 

Yes, and yes.

@the other poster - you can look up the cost by state online.

Re: Llc
 

I am trying to open EIN now and it asking for Legal name of LLC witch I do not have yet. If anyone knows how do I do this

Re: Llc
 

This is the part where you make up the name of your LLC.

Then when you register your LLC with a state, make sure you use exactly the same LLC name.

EIN and LLC
 

I need specialist for EIN and LLC to sign up. Is anyone here knows for that?

Re: Llc
 

Just use legalzoom if you can't figure it out yourself. They're reliable, efficient, and reasonably cheap.

Re: LLC
 

AM I setting up virtual box for LLC, do I supposed to do this before open LLC and EIN? virtual address will be my business name? Thank you

Re: Llc
 

If you're going to be using a forwarding address or a service like that, it would probably be best to have it setup and ready to go before you start with your business filings.

Re: Llc
 

I believe you will also have to file taxes in the state where it is registered. Which means you will have to have an accountant either in that state or familiar with the tax laws in that state.

Re: Llc
 

If you're going to register out of state you might as well choose a state without a state income tax

Re: Llc
 

Whatever easiest way works for me. This whole things confuses me, LLC, EIN and tax.... Thank you

Re: Llc
 

It's intimidating for sure, but in reality it's not too bad. You can do it, lol. When you first joined I assumed you already had at least one LLC because you sounded big-time. :D

Re: Llc
 

Good point, i was going to comment "what about sales tax" but it appears unbeknownst to me that there is a state with no sales tax no income tax. Could it be?!?! What is happening in New Hampshire?
