Frequently Asked Questions

Should I form an LLC or corporation in Virginia?

For most small businesses: LLC. Simpler management, pass-through taxation, strong liability protection, lower cost. Corporations make sense for businesses seeking venture capital or planning to go public.

Can a Virginia LLC be taxed like an S-Corp?

Yes. Filing Form 2553 with the IRS lets an LLC elect S-Corp tax treatment while remaining an LLC legally — getting the best of both structures.

What are the main differences between a Virginia LLC and corporation?

LLCs have flexible management, pass-through taxation by default, and simpler compliance. Corporations have rigid structure but offer better options for equity investment and employee stock plans.
