Hi folks,
I highly appreciate your expertise on my plans. I have received my green card last year. Now I would like to start a company (either S corp or LLC) and also hire people on H1 or L1 visas. The services provided will be IT consulting.
If I register a S corp, can I hire people on H1 visas just as employees and pay them salaries and draw all the profits/dividends to myself. Or do you think LLC is a better option if I wish to recruit employees on H1 or L1. I heard that on LLC there are more tax implications especially the FICA taxes. Which is a better option. Right now I am a employee working on W2 through another consulting firm. I am planning to do a corp-to-corp once I register my company.
Nevertheless, I will also get opinion from CPA once I receive your expert advise. Does anyone among you who have been through the process help me as to how much it would cost me to get everything setup including the CPA fees before I can start hiring people for my company.
Thanks again for all the support you all offer each other.
Best Regards
