please see the excerpt from the IRS website below

If you are an employee or self-employed person and you receive wages or non-employee compensation subject to U.S. income tax withholding, or you have an office or place of business in the United States, you must generally file by the 15th day of the 4th month after your tax year ends. For a person filing using a calendar year this is generally April 15.

If you are not an employee or self-employed person who receives wages or non-employee compensation subject to U.S. income tax withholding, or if you do not have an office or place of business in the United States, you must file by the 15th day of the 6th month after your tax year ends. For a person filing using a calendar year this is generally June 15.

Yes. You must still file a tax return to the IRS regardless of whether you made a profit, even if you had no income. You may well be filing a zero return with $0 in most boxes.

If you’ve lost the letter of assignment that the IRS sent you when they allocated your EIN, only you can obtain a copy. You must call the IRS at +1-800-829-4933 between the hours of 7:00 a.m. and 10:00 p.m. EST. Give the tax assistant your business name and verifying information such as your business address and phone number.

Request a tax ID verification letter (form 147c). The IRS can fax or mail the letter to you if your contact information is the same as when you applied for the number. If you changed your business mailing address or fax number, you must file Form 8822 to change your address with the IRS before you can receive a verification letter.

An ITIN or individual tax identification number is your personal identification number with the IRS. You will need to complete an application form and go through a lengthy process to obtain one. It typically takes between 8 to 12 weeks to obtain your number.

There are several reasons that you need an ITIN.

1. When you receive rent, without an ITIN you will be subject to 30% withholding tax on the rent you receive. This will be deducted by your property manager and sent to the IRS as advance payment of income tax. If you have an ITIN you can avoid this.
2. When completing you IRS tax returns you will need an ITIN to identify yourself to the IRS and claim any allowances or reclaim any withholding tax that may have been paid.
3. You cannot submit a 1040NR without an ITIN.
4. An ITIN is required to enable certain forms to be completed, for example a W8ECI which is needed to avoid withholding tax cannot be filed without an ITIN.

No. You must pay income tax to the IRS on any profit you make, and you must pay income tax where you made the profit, not where your LLC is formed. So, if you made profit in a state that had a 10% tax rate, you’d pay 10% income tax, regardless of where you were registered.

Taxpayers needing more time to file their taxes can get an automatic six-month extension from the IRS. (Please see “When must my taxes be filed” to determine your filing deadline.)

IMPORTANT: The standard six-month tax extension allows you to file your tax return after the usual deadline. However, it doesn’t buy you more time to pay any taxes you may owe. That means that if you don’t pay your tax balance by the filing deadline (April 15 in 2019), you’ll get hit with penalty and interest.

If you missed the tax deadline but are due a refund there is no penalty. … But if you owe taxes and missed the deadline, there’s good news and bad news.

Bad news: You can’t file an extension at this point.

More bad news: you will be charged failure-to-file and failure-to-pay penalties for missing the deadline.

Good news: You can still file.

If you get charged a tax penalty, you have several options to deal with it.

Option 1: You can pay the penalty

Option 2: If you can’t pay your balance in full, pay what you can now. You can enter into an Installment Agreement to pay the remaining balance. Entering into an Installment Agreement may reduce future failure to pay penalties.

Option 3: You can contact the IRS and request penalty relief or abatement if you qualify. For more information on qualifications click here: https://www.irs.gov/businesses/small-businesses-self-employed/penalty-relief
