Get Started →Frequently Asked Questions
How is a New Mexico single-member LLC taxed?
As a disregarded entity by default — income goes on Schedule C of your personal return. You can also elect S-Corp status for tax savings once profits exceed ~$40K.
Does a New Mexico single-member LLC need an operating agreement?
Not legally required in most states, but strongly recommended. It strengthens liability protection and is required by most banks when opening a business account.
What’s the difference between a single-member LLC and a sole proprietorship?
A sole proprietorship offers zero liability protection. A single-member LLC creates a legal wall between your personal assets and business liabilities. That wall is the entire point.
