Great timing on this subject Tom! I have a client that has S corp and is wanting to go to C. I suggested going to disregarded entity. We are supposed to discuss next week.

I'm having trouble finding definitive guidance- for an LLC that only filed a Form 2553 and not an 8832 that now wishes to revoke the election to revert to disregarded entity status- is revoking the 2553 enough? Or does the 8832 need to be explicitly revoked (even if never directly filed) to avoid C Corp tax treatment on revocation?

I literally answered this question in the March 1 edition.

Apologies, had not had a chance to read that one. Was looking at the February 22 edition.

Great topic & explanation. I am currently dealing with an LLC that was formed several years ago & now wishes to get S Corp status. My research indicates that Forms 8832 & 2553 are required in this case. I'd love to hear your opinion

That is not correct. See the article above. Only Form 2553 is required.

The last example was confusing. I guess I'll reread.
