A multiple-member LLC can file as a corporation. Though most LLCs with more than one member file partnership returns (Form 1065), they can file as corporations by submitting Form 8832.
How To Form Your Multi-Member LLC? Choose a state of formation. Pick a name and reserve it with your state before filing your LLC (optional) Nominate a registered agent. Decide if the LLC is member-managed or manager-managed. Draft an operating agreement. Apply for EIN. Open a bank account.

Yes, an LLC can own another LLC. Such a setup can occur in two ways: through a single-member LLC, where one entity is the sole owner, or a multi-member LLC, where multiple entities share ownership. This versatility allows businesses to tailor their corporate structure to fit their unique needs and goals.
For multi-member LLCs, each member will have an ownership stake. One of the main differences between these two structures is that two or more people cannot own a single-member LLC, unless you're married in a community property state, and a single person cannot own a multi-member LLC.
If you and your spouse open a business, you may need to file for a multi-member LLC depending on where you live. Spouses in community property states (Arizona, California, Idaho, Louisiana, Nevada, New Mexico, Texas, Washington and Wisconsin) are already considered joint owners, so a single-member LLC will suffice.
Once you (and the other LLC Members, if applicable) sign the Operating Agreement, then it becomes a legal document. Can I write my own Operating Agreement? Yes, but we recommend using an Operating Agreement template. An Operating Agreement is a legal document.
If you're forming—or have formed—an LLC in California, New York, Missouri, Maine, or Delaware, state laws require you to create an LLC Operating Agreement. But no matter what state you're in, it's always a good idea to create a formal agreement between LLC members.
