When you form an LLC as a creator in Arkansas, your business income is typically treated as pass-through income. This means the profits are passed through to your personal income and taxed at the individual level. You'll pay self-employment taxes (Social Security and Medicare) on your profits. Alternatively, you can elect to have your LLC taxed as an S-Corp, which can potentially reduce your self-employment tax burden. For a deeper dive, see our resource on forming an LLC in Arkansas.
