FAQ
Yes, you can technically be your own Registered Agent in New York, but there's no reason to be. This is because New York is very different from most other states in that every Limited Liability Company (LLC) has the same Registered Agent by default. We'll explain.
An LLC or LLP treated as a corporation, including an S corporation, for federal income tax purposes is treated as a corporation for New York tax purposes or as a New York S corporation if the New York S election is made (or if it is a mandated New York S corporation).
Please note New York City does not have an S corporation election and does not recognize a New York State S corporation election. In general, federal subchapter S corporations and qualified subchapter S subsidiaries are subject to the GCT.
Because of the one-class-of-stock restriction, an S corporation cannot allocate losses or income to specific shareholders. Allocation of income and loss is governed by stock ownership, unlike partnerships or LLCs taxed as partnerships where the allocation can be set in the partnership agreement or operating agreement.
Each state requires an agent because if an S corporation is brought to court, it must be properly notified so it can respond to the court summons. A registered agent helps ensure that all parties in a business suit are properly notified.
How to Start an S-Corp in New York Step 1 – Choose a name. Step 2 – Choose a registered agent. Step 3 – File Articles of Organization. Step 4 – Create an operating agreement. Step 5 – Apply for an EIN. Step 6 – Meet the New York LLC publication requirement. Step 7 – Apply for S Corp status with IRS Form 2553.
Every corporation, domestic or foreign, must have a Registered Agent with a registered office within the State of New York at all times.
If the shareholder(s) of an S corporation made an S election for federal purposes, New York State does not automatically treat the company as a New York S corporation unless they are mandated to file as an S corporation under Tax Law § 660(i).
To be taxed as an S corporation, you must convert your LLC into a traditional corporation (C corporation) with the state, and file IRS Form 2553 "Election as a Small Business Corporation" with the IRS. For your business to qualify as an S corporation, make sure it meets the IRS's specific guidelines.
