Summary
We need a licensed CPA or Enrolled Agent to prepare and e-file two overdue 2025 business tax returns for California entities. Both extensions expired Sept 15, 2026, so this is time-sensitive.
Scope:
Entity 1: California LLC taxed as a partnership (multi-member), Form 1065 + CA Form 568. Subject to the BBA partnership audit regime. Involves a mid-year entity conversion requiring analysis under IRC §357(c), §704(b)/(d), and §752 (partner basis/at-risk, liability allocation). Possible §1202 (QSBS) analysis on conversion.
Entity 2: California S-corporation (single shareholder), Form 1120-S + CA Form 100S. Needs a reasonable-compensation review and characterization of a large shareholder loan balance.
First-time penalty abatement requests for both entities.
Requirements:
Demonstrated experience with multi-member partnership returns under the BBA regime, and ideally with entity conversions / QSBS issues
Able to commit to e-filing both returns by Oct 12, 2026
Comfortable working remotely; location-flexible (offshore, expat, or U.S. based all welcome) — we're prioritizing qualified expertise at a reasonable fixed fee, not just lowest cost
