FTB: Filed LLC taxes with Form 565 instead of 658 - What to do?

I found a way to solve LLC tax form confusion, watch this: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ipXGZaR5d_w

have you tried turning it off and on again? 😂 jk jk. taxes are the worst. hope you get it sorted!

I found a way to get someone on the phone fast. I used this site's (claimyr.com) calling tool that dials the phone menu, stays on hold, waits for a live agent to pick up, then sends the call to my phone. It does cost $20, but it works. Here's the link: https://claimyr.com

Ugh, tax forms are the worst! I had a similar issue last year with my S-corp. Make sure you have all your paperwork ready when you call. They'll probably ask for your EIN and filing dates.

Hey OP, any update? Did you manage to get through to someone? Curious to hear how it turned out!

I swear the government makes this stuff complicated on purpose. It's like they WANT us to mess up so they can fine us 🙄

Plot twist: both forms are wrong and you actually need to file form 42069 🤣🤣🤣

As an accountant, I can tell you that the form you need depends on how your LLC is classified for tax purposes. Here's a breakdown: • Form 565: Used for partnerships and multi-member LLCs taxed as partnerships • Form 658: Used for corporations (C-corps and S-corps) • No separate form: Single-member LLCs (reported on your personal tax return) If you're a multi-member LLC and haven't elected to be taxed as a corporation, Form 565 is likely correct. However, if you've made an election to be taxed as a corporation, then Form 658 would be appropriate. When you call, ask these questions: 1. Why do they believe Form 658 is correct for your LLC? 2. Has there been any record of a tax classification election for your LLC? 3. If a mistake was made, what steps do you need to take to correct it? Remember, it's always better to address these issues sooner rather than later. Good luck!

Oof, I feel your pain. I messed up my LLC taxes last year and it was a nightmare to fix. Make sure you keep detailed records of all your communications with the tax office. And if they tell you to send any documents, always send them certified mail. Learned that one the hard way 😅

lol welcome to the wonderful world of business taxes 🤡 its a mess out here. good luck getting anyone on the phone tho, I've been trying for weeks!

Form 565 is typically used for partnerships and LLCs taxed as partnerships. If your LLC is a single-member LLC, you might not need to file a separate form at all. It depends on how you elected to be taxed. Did you make any specific tax elections when you formed your LLC?
