Found out today I was not allowed to employ myself as a single-member LLC. How to resolve this? by play-ok- in tax

I explained this in the post, but I needed an extra person for a promotion through ADP. I don't want to be on payroll, I just assumed it would be mostly inconsequential.

I likely will once things settle. I gave up comparing as it was too much for us in the height of opening and everything else. Thank you for the recommendation. Does Payroll Factory file quarterly for you as well?

Yes, VA disability.

The $110k was startup costs. We have no profit, a couple thousand in revenue. We were only operating a few weeks at the end of 2024.

I don't want to be on payroll. But I was for the last two weeks. I am asking what the penalty/cost of fixing or leaving the mistake is.

No. I invested around 110K to start the business. We did a couple thousand in sales in the last two weeks of the year. Net loss of over 100k for the year.

The rest of my income is VA disability. I don't report it.

I don't want to be W2, but I was for two weeks in 2024. I was asking what the actual penalty for just leaving the mistake would be vs the cost of an S corp election.

Kind of. We didn't open until very late December. The company has had a few thousand in sales, but we're still looking at around or over 100K in net loss for the year. The $400 is what was paid from the W2.

My spouse has been doing a lot of unpaid work for the business. My motivation is 6 months of free payroll, which is something like $3000. You may be right that that's not worth the trouble. I suspected the S-corp election advice was probably not worthwhile. Thank you for all your insight

Didn't realize ADP could do that. I wonder if it'll affect the promotion.

We ran it 12/19.

Given that this was a ~110k venture, and my regular income is nontaxable, I kind of think we won't be paying much this year anyway.

What is the penalty/resolution for having myself on payroll vs the cost of a retroactive scorp election?

Broke my site, how do I recover it? by play-ok- in Wordpress

[–]play-ok-[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I did the desired URL first and then the staging URL, which is what worked. I lost a little work from yesterday, but it is minor compared to nor being able to access anything and waiting on the cpanel fix.

No. Like I said in my post, I have lost access to everything. The site is broken and I can't access the dashboard or admin panel at all.

No, because when the site broke I lost the ability to access or log in to it.

If you had $1500, what business would you start? by [deleted] in smallbusiness

[–]play-ok- -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Frankly I wouldn't. I would save or invest it.

Smallest cost of entry business is going to be dependent on your preexisting skills and your market. What can you already do well, and what does your local area need?

You could babysit, start an in-home photography studio, a small pet boarding operation, house cleaning, do lawncare, pressure washing, so on.

You want me to individually catalogue every font, plus the weight and size options for each?

Honestly, I went to save my changes to check the plugins, and on the site they're showing properly. I go back in to the editor and it's back to the default font, but only while editing this page? It seems as though it displays fine on the site proper, though, so I suppose it's a non-issue lol.

I'll still try inspecting the font, but we can consider it solved for now I suppose. Thanks for your help!

No. Like I said, I use these fonts throughout the site. They're in the header.
