0:00Own a U.S. LLC from abroad? You probably have to file Form 5472 every year, even with no income.
0:07If you're the foreign owner of a single-member LLC, your LLC files Form 5472 with a pro forma Form 1120.
0:17It's due April 15. Form 7004 extends it to October 15.
0:23Missing it can cost twenty-five thousand dollars per form, per year.
0:27Here's the guided flow on SingleFax, using demo data.
0:31Start with your business, the tax period, and an upload of your business bank CSV.
0:37Answer a few deadline questions, then add the company details: Sample Demo LLC.
0:43Add the foreign owner. Here, Alex Demo owns one hundred percent.
0:49List every related person or company, and the names they show up under on your bank statement.
0:54Then let our specialized AI agent read each transaction. It suggests a category and who the payment was with.
1:02Anything unclear becomes a simple question, like who was this payment with? You confirm, the totals land on the right lines, and you sign in the browser. An admin reviews the package before it's faxed to the IRS.
