Form 5472 & Proforma 1120 Filing Service

Form 5472 together with a Proforma Form 1120 is an annual information return required for foreign-owned disregarded entities — most commonly a foreign-owned single-member LLC registered in the United States. Under U.S. tax rules, a single-member LLC is generally treated as a disregarded entity: the LLC itself is ignored for income tax purposes, and any income is considered to belong directly to its owner.

This filing is not an income tax return. Its purpose is to inform the IRS about reportable transactions between the foreign owner and the U.S. LLC during the year — it does not calculate income tax or report profit or business expenses. No tax is assessed through Form 5472 or the Proforma 1120 itself.

Who Must File

You must file if you are a foreign owner of a U.S. single-member LLC and the LLC was active at any time during the year. If the LLC is closed during the year, a final return must still be filed, clearly marked as Final.

Our Service Package — $200 (fixed fee)

  • Review of ownership and transaction details
  • Accurate preparation of Form 5472 and Proforma Form 1120
  • Submission to the IRS by fax or mail (as required)
  • Proof of filing and a complete copy of the submitted return

We charge a flat fee of $200 with fixed fees quoted in writing — see our fee schedule. Since this return cannot be e-filed, our fee already covers the cost and handling of fax submission to the IRS.

Do I Also Need to File an Income Tax Return?

Because a single-member LLC is treated as a disregarded entity, the owner — not the LLC — is responsible for reporting any income. If you are a nonresident alien, U.S. income tax generally applies only if the income is effectively connected with a U.S. trade or business. In simple terms: if you do not operate or manage business activities inside the U.S., your LLC income is usually not taxable in the United States.

In many cases your LLC’s gross receipts are reported to the IRS by payment processors or banks. To avoid misunderstandings, we often recommend filing a nonresident income tax return that reports the LLC income transparently and includes an explanatory statement citing why the income is not taxable under U.S. law — helping prevent IRS notices and unnecessary disputes.
