You'll report your business income on Schedule C of Form 1040. For a deeper dive, see our resource on forming an LLC in Delaware. Delaware also has a franchise tax, which applies to most LLCs. Choosing the right tax classification (e.g., S-corp election) can impact your overall tax burden. Lovie can help you determine the optimal tax strategy.
