Single Member Alien LLC CPA Consultation
Budget: $30 – $250 USD
Hello, I am a German ecommerce business owner with a Delaware LLC. I need some assistance from a CPA with my foreign owned single-member LLC.
Specifically, I need some questions answered on whether ecommerce sales in the US without a physical presence, employees or similar are considered ECI (effectively connected income) and thus subject to federal tax. I have done extensive research online and It is still unclear to me if my LLC needs to pay federal tax or income state tax (or both) because not only physical presence, but rather the transfer of the product ownership also needs to be taken into account.
Please note, this is a one-time job where I explain my situation (which I already hinted at above) and I give you 2-3 questions that I want answered, for example; „Do I need to pay federal tax based on …..“, so the payment is for these questions and it is undecided whether this will be an ongoing relationship or a one-time service.
