B. Get Your State Tax ID Number and Or Other State Required Documentation
Have your Federal Tax ID Number (EIN) handy; most states require it on their state tax ID number forms and other forms.
1. Application for Connecticut Tax Registration Number
All LLCs and corporations must file Form REG-1 to determine the tax obligations owed to the state. You can file online at http://www.ct.gov/drs/cwp/view.asp?a=1509&q=266240
Once you have your Federal Tax ID Number, you must file REG-1.
If you have any questions, call the state’s Department of Revenue at 800-382-9463 or log on to www.ct.gov/drs
2. Form CT-1065 (for LLCs that have more than one member – ONLY)
If you are an LLC that has two or more members and have elected to be treated as a partnership for federal tax purposes (see your SS-4 form we completed for you), you will need to file Form CT-1065, Connecticut Partnership Income Tax Return when such returns are due.
To learn more about the CT-1065, you can download it at http://www.ct.gov/drs/lib/drs/forms/2006forms/composite/ct-1065ct-1120siatt.pdf
You can also call the state’s Department of Revenue at 800-382-9463 (from within CT)
or 860-297-5962 (Within Hartford calling area or outside of Connecticut).
3. Annual Reports
For LLCs – all LLCs must submit an annual report to the Secretary of State each year. This will be mailed to you prior to its due date. The filing fee is $10.
Failure to file an annual report by either a LLC will result in that entity losing its good standing to transact business with the Connecticut Secretary of State.
Surely, the list above is not everything you will need to do once you form an llc in Connecticut.
