Choose a Business Structure
When registering a business in US you must decide what form of business entity to
establish.
Your form of business determines which income tax return form you
have to file.
When you fill in your Employer Identification Number (EIN) you must choose one
of the following business entities:
- A sole proprietor is someone who owns an unincorporated business by
himself or herself.
- A partnership is the relationship existing between two or more persons
who join to carry on a trade or business.
Each person contributes money, property, labour or skill, and expects to
share in the profits and losses of the business.
- A limited liability company (LLC) is a flexible form of enterprise that
blends elements of partnership and corporate structures.
It is a legal form of company that provides limited liability to its owners
in the vast majority of United States jurisdictions

property, or both, for the corporation´s capital stock.
A corporation generally takes the same deductions as a sole proprietorship
to figure its taxable income
