Self-check
What do you actually need to file?
Answer a few questions — anonymously, in your browser — and get a personal checklist: which filings apply, when they're due, and when to start preparing. Nothing you enter leaves this page.
1 · Are you a U.S. person? (citizen, green-card holder, or U.S. tax resident)
2 · Do you own a U.S. LLC or corporation?
3 · Does the company have an EIN?
4 · Your U.S. income this year, personally?
5 · Foreign financial accounts over $10,000 total? (only matters for U.S. persons)
6 · Any past years you think went unfiled?
7 · Month the company was formed (for the state annual report)
This self-check is general information, not tax or legal advice, and creates no client relationship. Mechanical rules are stated plainly; judgment areas are flagged for assessment. Weekend/holiday date shifts are not applied. For the full year at a glance, see the compliance calendar.
FAQ
About this tool
Is this self-check anonymous?
Yes. Every answer is processed inside your browser only — nothing is sent to us or stored on any server. There is no sign-up.
Is the result tax advice?
No. It is general information based on your answers. Mechanical rules (like the Form 5472 duty) are stated plainly; judgment areas (like whether income tax applies) are flagged for a licensed assessment.
What should I do with my checklist?
Calendar the deadlines, start gathering documents by the suggested prepare-by dates, and request a quote if you want the filings handled — the checklist maps one-to-one to our flat-priced services.
