As a business owner you have to deal with all the requirements from both the federal and state governments for legally operating a business in your state. One of the major requirements is the filing of an S Corporation tax return. If you are starting a business you will want to check out our information regarding choosing the correct business entity.

Every corporation that has been elected as an S Corporation (Form 2553) must file an S Corporate Tax Return called a Form 1120S, regardless of the amount of income or loss. It must file even if it stops conducting business. Filing ends when the corporation is totally dissolved. The deadline for filing a Form 1120 is the 15th day of the 3rd month following the close of the tax year. A Form 7004 can be filed for a tax extension with an additional 6 month extensions available after the first tax extension.

Generally, an S corporation is exempt from federal income tax other than tax on certain capital gains and passive income. On their tax returns, the S corporation's shareholders include their share of the corporation's separately stated items of income, deduction, loss, and credit, and their share of non-separately stated income or loss.
