We prepare the filing from your records; the IRS processes it on its own schedule.
Ownership and tax classification decide the forms. We confirm yours before any work starts.
Usually files Form 5472 with a pro-forma Form 1120 when it had reportable transactions with its owner.
A single-member LLC owned by one person is a disregarded entity for US tax. When it is foreign-owned, the IRS treats it as a corporation only for Form 5472 reporting, and the form is attached to a pro-forma Form 1120.
Files a partnership return (Form 1065) with a Schedule K-1 for each member. Form 5472 may still apply.
Files Form 1120, and Form 5472 for each foreign related party it transacted with.
Four plain facts about how a filing is handled here.
Every return we prepare is for a US company owned from outside the US, so Form 5472 and its related-party rules are the daily work, not the exception.
Every return is checked against your records and the form instructions before it is submitted, and you approve it first.
You receive every form we submit and a record of the submission in your dashboard, kept there for later years and for provider requests.
Records, questions and the review happen in English, Spanish, Portuguese or French.
Filing is priced per return. A formation subscription does not include it unless you chose Full Compliance.

A calm, plain-English rundown of the federal filing dates that matter for your US LLC or C-Corp in 2026 — plus how extensions work if you need more time.
6 min readPossibly. A foreign-owned single-member LLC files Form 5472 for any year with reportable transactions, including money you put in or took out. No revenue does not by itself remove the requirement.
We prepare the forms and submit them to the IRS. You receive copies of everything filed and a record of the submission. The IRS processes returns on its own schedule and does not issue an acceptance letter for Form 5472.
Per filing. A single-member LLC return is $399; a C-Corp or multi-member LLC return is $899. Full Compliance subscribers have federal filing included in their plan.
Tell us before you do anything else. We can still prepare the filing and, where relevant, help you request penalty relief. Contact us with the tax year and your situation.
One Wyoming or Delaware state return is included with the C-Corp and multi-member LLC filing when the state requires one. Other state work is quoted separately.
You need a clear record of the year’s transactions. Bank statements are often enough for a low-activity LLC. Our accounting service can prepare reconciled books if you would rather not do it yourself.
Money or property moving between you and the company: capital you put in, expenses you paid for it, amounts it paid you, loans in either direction and their repayment. Form 5472 reports these by category, which is why we ask for them separately from revenue.
Yes. Tell us which tax years are open. We prepare each year from the records you have, note the late filing where the form requires it and, where it applies, prepare a penalty-relief request with the filing.
Form 5472 and pro-forma Form 1120 from $399 per filing. Copies and submission records included.
