What do I need to bring with me to file my business tax return?
Preparing your own business tax return, especially for the first time, can be a frustrating experience if you don't have all the necessary information at your fingertips. Here's a list of items you may find helpful when preparing your business tax return:
-
Last year’s federal and state business tax returns
-
Articles of incorporation [i.e. List of officers, shareholders and possibly ownership percentages]
-
If S Corporation, attach S Corp Acceptance Letter
-
The state in which you incorporated your business]
-
Partnership agreement [i.e. Date the partnership started, List of partners, The amount of money each partner initially put into the partnership, and current ownership percentages, Details about any specific income or expense items that are NOT allocated based on profit, loss or ownership percentages, The method you use for tracking your business finances]
-
Accounting records [If you use accounting software, such as QuickBooks or Quicken, to record your financial information, print out a Profit and Loss Statement and a Balance Sheet for quick reference as you begin your tax return. If not, you may wish to compile this information in an Business Income and Expnese worksheet. Regardless of which software you use, organizing your accounting records makes tax preparation much easier.
-
Bank statements [Analyzing deposits and expenditures will enable you to categorize income and deductions to prepare your tax return. It's a good idea to reconcile your ending cash balance to the checking account balance on your last bank statement of the year to ensure you've captured all cash transactions in your accounting records.
