Ohio LLC Tax Return Preparation in Powell, OH
Your Powell LLC's tax filing depends entirely on how it's taxed — and many owners don't realize they have a choice. By default, single-member LLCs file Schedule C on the owner's personal return; multi-member LLCs file Form 1065 partnership returns and issue K-1s. But any LLC can elect S-corp or C-corp taxation by filing Form 2553 or 8832. We file all variants and advise on which makes sense for your business.

Why this LLC Tax Return Preparation page is written for Powell
one of the largest Somali populations in the United States outside Minneapolis, with growing Bhutanese, Burmese, and Latino communities — and Powell, with a population near 14,591, reflects that mix in its schools, workplaces, and houses of worship.
Columbus Metro tax filers tend to need ITIN preparation, expat returns, multi-state W-2 filings, and ITIN-dependent child tax credit work — and the document trail matters more than the math. Our Delaware County clients receive a complete return walkthrough — line by line — so they understand what was claimed, what was deducted, and why.
Powell sits in Columbus Metro, driven by financial services, insurance, healthcare, and the new wave of tech investment around the Intel campus and the Columbus Region Logistics Council corridor. Delaware County, where Powell is located, is a mid-sized Ohio community where most county document services are available locally, though some federal appointments still require driving to the regional field office.

My LLC made no money this year. Do I still need to file?+
Yes for multi-member LLCs (Form 1065 is required even with zero activity). For single-member LLCs with no income, Schedule C is not required if you had no gross receipts. Ohio CAT only applies if gross receipts exceed $150,000.
Should I elect S-corp status for my LLC?+
S-corp election can save self-employment tax once your LLC clears about $60,000 in net profit, but it requires running payroll for yourself (with reasonable compensation), filing a separate 1120-S return, and additional administrative work. We model both scenarios using your actual numbers before recommending.
What is Ohio CAT and does my LLC have to pay it?+
Ohio Commercial Activity Tax applies to businesses with taxable gross receipts over $150,000/year. Quarterly filing is required if gross receipts exceed $1 million. The tax rate is 0.26% on receipts above $1 million. Most small LLCs only owe the $150 minimum annual fee, if anything.
How far is your office from Powell?+
Our office at 3185 Morse Rd, Suite 15, Columbus is approximately 13 miles from Powell — typically a 24-minute drive. We're on the north side of Columbus between Cleveland Ave and I-71 with free parking. Walk in any day Monday through Saturday 10am–6pm, or Sunday 10am–4pm.
Do Powell residents owe school district income tax?+
If you live within the Olentangy Local Schools boundary, you may owe Ohio school district income tax on top of federal and Ohio IT-1040 state tax. The SD-100 return is filed alongside your Ohio return. We handle all three (federal, state, school district) as part of standard tax preparation.
