Sorry another tax question, Form 5471
Anyone attempted one of these before? I do the rest of my tax return using Turbo Tax, but this one might just require some expert help

Why do you think you need to file it?
Generally it doesn't make sense for an average person to have a foreign corporation, usually it makes more sense to dissolve it and start a corporation in the US, which avoids the need to file the form.
Not that 1120 is a piece of cake but it's easier than 5471.

Thanks Steve. If i was the only shareholder, then you would probably be right, but in this case it was not an option.
