Your LLC, your U.S. tax filings, Form 5472, an apostille you are not sure will hold up. You are talking to a Public Accountant (Argentina), IRS-registered tax preparer and Florida Notary Public — not to someone recounting how it went for them.
Telling me your case commits you to nothing. If the short consultation solves it, I will say so.
Worth being precise about, because there is a lot of advice around and it is not all the same thing.
There is genuinely good content made by people who moved and share what they learned. It is useful, and it almost always opens by clarifying that it is not tax or legal advice — because it cannot be. Here it is the reverse: I am registered with the IRS to prepare and file returns, and commissioned as a notary in Florida. I answer for what I sign.
My notary commission is #HH 652310 and it sits in Florida's public register. The PTIN is the number the IRS issues to authorize filing. You do not have to take my word for any of it — check before you pay me a cent.
My public accountant license is Argentine. The CPA title is granted by the State of Florida and I do not hold it. If your case needs an audit or an opinion carrying a CPA signature, I will tell you and refer you out — rather than take the fee and improvise.
I am not an immigration attorney. If your case touches that, I refer you. And while we are here: owning a U.S. LLC gives you no immigration status. Those are two separate matters and it is worth not mixing them.
Depending on how tangled your case is. Pick the one that fits, or tell me and I will say which.
And what does not. That second half is usually the valuable one: plenty of people arrive set on opening something that, in their case, only adds cost and filings.
Form 5472 with the 1120 pro forma is the one most often missed, and the penalty starts at USD 25,000. If you are behind, I tell you since when and how it gets cleaned up.
If there is work to do, you get scope and price fixed before it starts. No billable hours, nothing added at the end.
It is professional. I am an IRS-registered tax preparer with a PTIN, which authorizes me to prepare and file returns, and a Florida notary public, commission #HH 652310, verifiable on Sunbiz. This is not someone telling you how it went for them: it is someone who answers for what he signs. I say it because a lot of advice out there opens by disclaiming that it is neither tax nor legal advice, and you should know what you are buying.
No. I am a Public Accountant licensed in Argentina, an IRS-registered tax preparer with a PTIN and EFIN, and a Florida notary public. The CPA title is granted by the State of Florida and I do not hold it; using it without a license would violate Chapter 473 of the Florida Statutes. If your matter needs an audit or an opinion requiring a CPA signature, I will tell you and refer you out.
For simple cases it is plenty: which state to form in, whether you are missing Form 5472, whether your certificate will actually get apostilled, whether the quote you received makes sense. If your case is bigger — several LLCs, back years, property, partners — I will not sell you fifteen minutes. You send me the case through the form and I come back with scope and price fixed before anything starts.
I read it myself, not a bot. If your case is solved by the short consultation, I will say so and send you the link. If it is bigger, you get a written proposal with scope and price fixed. If what you need is not something I do, I will tell you that too and refer you out. Sending the form commits you to nothing.
No, and not as a disclaimer: I am not an immigration attorney and that field has its own license. If your case touches it, I refer you to an immigration attorney I work with. What I can clear up is something that gets confused constantly: owning a U.S. LLC gives you no immigration status whatsoever. They are two separate matters.
Palm Beach County, Florida, and I work by video call in English or Spanish. Most of my clients live outside the United States: you do not need to travel and you do not need a visa.
Two or three lines is enough. I read it myself and come back with the diagnosis and, if there is work, a fixed quote.
