FORM 1120-S

S corporation filing, with less guesswork.

Prepare for your return with shareholder and business records in one place.

Who generally files?

An eligible corporation or LLC with a valid S election generally files Form 1120-S. Legal entity type alone does not establish S corporation status.

What to prepare

Gather your profit and loss, balance sheet, payroll information, shareholder details, distributions, basis records, and prior return.

Shareholder reporting

Schedule K-1 reports shareholder allocations. Calendar-year S corporations generally file by March 15, adjusted for weekends and holidays.

Review Form 7004 extension requirements and any separate state filing rules.
