California taxes we handle for you

California is one of the more expensive states to run a business, and the rules trip up a lot of owners. Here is what we keep off your plate:

  • The $800 annual LLC franchise tax (R&TC 17941) — owed every year your LLC is active, even with no profit.
  • The LLC gross-receipts fee (R&TC 17942), which kicks in at $250,000 of California income: $900 at $250K–$499K, $2,500 at $500K–$999K, and $6,000 at $1M–$4.99M. We file Form 568 for single member LLCs.
  • The Pass-Through Entity (PTE) elective tax (AB 150) — an optional 9.3% entity-level tax that can work around the $10,000 federal SALT deduction cap and save you real money. We run the math each year.
  • Sales and use tax through the CDTFA — registration, collection, and filing.

Small businesses we work with locally
