As a coaching LLC in Delaware in 2026, understanding your tax obligations is crucial for financial health. This guide breaks down federal and Delaware-specific taxes, deductions, and common pitfalls to help you navigate the tax landscape successfully.

By default, a single-member coaching LLC in Delaware is treated as a disregarded entity for federal income tax purposes, meaning profits are taxed at the individual owner's level. Multi-member LLCs are taxed as partnerships. However, as a coaching LLC, you have the option to elect S-corp status, potentially reducing your self-employment tax burden. Delaware does not tax pass-through income but does have a franchise tax. Lovie can help you determine the most advantageous tax structure for your coaching business.
