Frequently Asked Questions

Get answers to common questions

Yes. Even with zero revenue, most US corporations must file an annual tax return (Form 1120 or 1065) to maintain good standing and avoid penalties. We offer a discounted rate for nil-revenue filings.
Typically Form 5471 (to report the US subsidiary from the Indian parent's perspective if individual shareholders are US persons), plus standard US Federal (1120) and State returns for the subsidiary itself. We'll analyze your structure and confirm all required forms.
Generally Form 5471 (to report the Indian subsidiary), FinCEN 114 if the US entity has signature authority over foreign accounts exceeding $10,000, and potentially transfer pricing documentation. We handle all of these.
Failure to file Form 5472 can result in significant penalties ($25,000+ per form per year). We can help you file delinquent returns and potentially qualify for penalty relief programs. Contact us immediately to discuss your situation.
Missing Form 5471 filings can result in penalties of $10,000 per form per year (or more in certain cases). We offer delinquent filing services and can explore reasonable cause defenses to minimize penalties.
Non-willful FBAR violations can result in penalties up to $10,000 per year, while willful violations carry much steeper penalties. We can help you come into compliance through delinquent FBAR filing procedures and work to minimize penalties.
Yes. We'll assess your eligibility for the R&D tax credit, calculate the credit amount, and prepare the necessary forms (Form 6765 and supporting documentation). This can result in significant tax savings for qualifying companies.
Yes. We file Form 7004 to extend your filing deadline by 6 months. This gives you more time to finalize your books and prepare accurate returns. We offer free extension filing to protect your deadlines while you get organized.
Form 7004 must be filed by the original tax return due date (typically March 15 for S-Corps and partnerships, April 15 for C-Corps). Once filed, it extends your deadline by 6 months.
Don't panic. We can file your late returns and work to minimize penalties through reasonable cause arguments or voluntary disclosure programs. The sooner you act, the better your options. Contact us immediately.

Yes, ODI (an Indian regulatory requirement) has no relation to US tax filing obligations. If you own a US entity, you generally must file the applicable US returns regardless of ODI status.
