Navigating the Decision to Become an LLC as a Freelance Interpreter

July 31, 2021 @ 9:00 am - 11:00 am CDT

Event Description

This workshop will reveal the answers to the most common questions interpreters ask about LLCs, including: Do I need an LLC? How do I form an LLC? What is liability insurance? Does an LLC provide tax savings? What is an EIN? How are sole proprietorships and S Corps different? In addition, we will examine several real-life scenarios to help interpreters evaluate whether or not an LLC is right for them.

 

At the conclusion of the training, participants will be able to:

  1. Participants will understand what an LLC is
  2. Participants will be able to indicate the difference between liability insurance and LLCs
  3. Participants will be able to describe the purpose of an EIN and a tradename (DBA)
  4. Participants will be able to identify the tax implications of sole proprietorships and S Corps
