Keep good records
Ongoing: Stay compliant and grow. Step 23 of 24 in the new LLC launch playbook. If the IRS or your state asks questions, your records are your proof.
Key points:
- Keep receipts, bank statements, invoices, contracts and tax returns in an organized digital folder.
- The IRS generally says to keep tax records for at least three years, and some records longer. Ask your accountant for your list.
- Keep your LLC documents (formation, operating agreement, EIN letter) for the life of the business.
Tip: Back up to the cloud.
