FAQ

Business formation questions, answered.

Do I need an LLC to start a business?

You can operate as a sole proprietor without an LLC, but forming one separates your personal assets from business liabilities and can offer tax advantages. Many self-employed professionals find it worth the cost early on.

How much does it cost to form an LLC in Florida?

Florida charges $100 for Articles of Organization plus $25 for a registered agent — $125 in state fees total. These are paid directly to the State of Florida and are not included in our service fee.

Can Financial Ace 1040 file my LLC paperwork directly with the state?

Financial Ace 1040 is not a law firm and does not provide legal representation. We assist with preparing and organizing your formation documents. You submit them to the state, or we walk you through the process.

What is an EIN and do I need one?

An EIN is your business's federal tax ID. You'll need it to open a business bank account, hire employees, and file business tax returns. EINs are free directly from the IRS at irs.gov.

When should I consider an S-Corp election?

An S-Corp election can reduce self-employment tax once your business is consistently profitable — commonly when net income exceeds $50,000–$60,000 per year. We review your specific numbers during consultation.

Are EINs really free?

Yes. The IRS issues EINs at no cost at irs.gov/ein. Some third-party sites charge a fee to apply on your behalf. Our package includes walking you through the application, but the EIN itself is free.
