Hi,
I’m looking for a US CPA (or EA) to assist with a very specific and time-sensitive IRS verification task for a US entity (EIN available).
Scope of work (strictly limited):
1. Contact the IRS (Business & Specialty Tax Line) and confirm the current federal tax classification for the EIN
- Specifically: whether the entity is currently treated as a C Corporation or a disregarded entity (single-member LLC)
2. Confirm whether Form 1120 for tax year 2024 has been:
- Filed
- Received
- Processed/accepted by the IRS
3. Provide a short written summary confirming:
- Current IRS classification
- 2024 Form 1120 status
Additional context (for reference only):
- The entity was originally set up with an SS-4 indicating C Corporation intent
- There appears to be conflicting information regarding how the IRS currently classifies the entity
- Attempts to e-file Form 1120 have been rejected
- A Form 1120 for tax year 2024 may have been submitted by mail (not e-filed), and needs to be verified
Important notes:
- This is NOT a full tax engagement
- No tax filing, no restructuring, and no advisory beyond the above scope
- Please do NOT expand scope unless explicitly requested
I can provide:
- EIN and entity details
- Form 2848 (POA) if needed
Timing:
- This is urgent — ideally completed within 24 hours
Deliverable:
- Short written confirmation (email/message is sufficient)
- IRS transcript for tax year 2024 (if available)
Please include in your proposal:
- Estimated turnaround time
- Fixed price for this task
Thanks!
