Legal Question in Tax Law in California

Taxes on Partnership and LLC?

My friend and I will be forming an online business where we will be selling imported clothes to distributors. We want to know what the difference in tax write offs are between a Partnership and LLC? Also, 1 of us will be living in China to get the business running. Can China living and travelling expenses be written off in either case?

Re: Taxes on Partnership and LLC?

Tax advice regarding the proper formation of a corporate entity is not helpful without a full review of your business and your finances; however, as a general rule both have pass through tax structures. Generally speaking, business expenses, in your example living expenses in China, can reduce the overall tax burden of the corporation.
