FAQ
The biggest difference between S corporations and LLCs is how they are taxed. S corporations are taxed as pass-through entities, meaning that the profits and losses are passed through to the shareholders' personal tax returns, while LLCs can choose to be taxed as either a pass-through entity or a corporation.
To qualify as an S Corporation in Illinois, a business must first be registered as a corporation in the state. It should then elect S Corporation status through the IRS by filing Form 2553.
Corporate bylaws are legally required in Illinois. Illinois statute §805 ILCS 5/2.20 requires that bylaws be adopted either by shareholders at the first shareholder meeting or by directors at the initial director meeting.

Corporate bylaws are a company's foundational governing document. They lay out how things should run day-to-day and the processes for making important decisions. They serve as a legal contract between the corporation and its shareholders, directors, and officers and set the protocol for how the organization operates.
