Scott Yanta Series LLC & BRRRR Questions from Rookie Investor (Illinois/STL)

Whether the courts of a non-series LLC state would respect the liability shields of a series LLC is not known.The IRS has issued proposed regulations providing insight into the IRS’ treatment of these entities:1) Each series within a series LLC will be treated as a separate entity for federal income tax purposes;2) Each series is allowed to choose its own entity classification independent of the classification of other series; and3) Each series should only be liable for federal income taxes related to that series.The proposed regulations do not address the entity status of a series organization for federal tax purposes nor do the proposed regulations specifically address whether each series within a series LLC should obtain a separate employer identification number (EIN) and file a separate federal tax return.Until final regulations are issued, I advise clients to obtain separate EINs and file separate income tax returns for each separate series which, I believe, helps each series maintain separate and distinct corporate identities, thereby reducing the risk anyone may be able attached a judgment to you or another series and pierce the corporate veil.Other ways to minimize the chance that one series may be held liable for liabilities of the entity as a whole (or another series) include the following:1) Create a separate bank account for each series (again, you’ll need a separate EIN to do this)2) Don’t commingle funds within series.3) Always sign documents in the name of the series.4) Properly document all loans between series.5) Conduct all transactions between series in an arms'-length manner at fair market prices using appraisals.6) Keep the assets and operations of each series separate from the other series.
