IRS Now Allows Late S-Corporation Election Filing

The IRS has improved the procedure for electing S-Corporation status after the filing date for the S-Corporation Election Form (Form 2553) has passed.  If you can show reasonable cause for why the election is late it is now easier to obtain S-Corporation Status after the deadline.  Information on the change can be found here.

For more information on how an S-Corporation is organized and the differences between entity types see our page on choosing an entity.
