If you are a limited liability partnership, you must provide information about each partner. You must file an annual report for partnerships, LLCs, and LPs with assets over $50,000.

Filing requirement in NY
Form IT204-LL is used to report information about a limited liability company or general partnership with income, gains, losses, deductions, credits, or refunds from New York State sources during the tax period covered by the return. This includes partnerships that are members of a consolidated group.
A partnership with no New York resident partners cannot file Form IT204–ll. However, an S corporation that has no New York residents as shareholders can still file Form IT204-LL.
An S corporation must file Form 8832 whether or not it has income, gains, or losses from New York State sources because it is treated as having income, gains, or loss from New Jersey, Connecticut, Delaware, Maryland, Massachusetts, Pennsylvania, Rhode Island, Virginia, West Virginia, North Carolina, South Carolina, Georgia, Florida, Alabama, Mississippi, Louisiana, Texas, Arkansas, Oklahoma, Kansas, Colorado, Nebraska, Wyoming, Arizona, California, Nevada, Idaho, Montana, Utah, Washington, Oregon, Alaska, Hawaii, Vermont, Maine, New Hampshire, or Canada.
Amount of annual filing fee (Ny)
The filing fee amount depends on the New York source gross income of the previous tax year for an LLC that is treated as a disregarded entity for federal taxation purposes. If the LLC had no income during the prior tax year, it does not owe any fees.
An LLC that is treated as having a separate taxable status for federal taxation purposes must pay a filing fee equal to 25% of the lesser of its New York source gross income or $50,000. This applies even if the LLC did not file a return for the prior tax year.
For an LLC that is treated similar to a corporation for federal taxation purposes, there is no filing charge.
LLC or LLP filing fee table in NY
An S Corporation is one of several types of business entities. They are designed to limit liability for owners. This allows individuals to form companies without having to pay income tax on profits. In addition, shareholders don’t receive dividends and distributions. Instead, the corporation pays out earnings to the owner(s).
In contrast, an LLC is a limited liability company. It’s similar to a partnership, except that there is no personal liability for partners. A partnership is considered a general partnership. Partnerships can be formed under either federal or state law.
The LLC can be taxed differently depending on its type. If you’re considering forming a new business, it’s best to consult a professional accountant. He or she can help determine which entity is most appropriate.
Businesses must file annual returns, even if they aren’t making money. You’ll want to file quarterly reports if you’re doing well.
Corporations and partnerships must file separate forms. However, both kinds of entities must report information about their financial status.
Partnership Filing Fee Table
The IRS updated the tables it uses to calculate the regular filing fee for partnerships. This change affects entities that file Form 1065, Schedule K-1, Partner’s Share of Income, Deductions, Credits, etc., including limited liability companies (LLCs), limited liability partnerships (LLPs), and general partnerships.
Three tables are used to determine the regular filing fee for each type of partnership. These tables consider the entity’s NY source gross income and NY source deductions. For example, if an LLC had a gross income of $10 million NY source deductions of $5 million, the regular filing fee would be $3,000. If an LLC had NY source deductions of $6 million, the regular filing charge would be $4,500.
The regular filing fee is zero if an entity does not have NY source gross income or NY source deductions.
For more information about the regular filing fee, see Publication 535, Partnership Returns of Individuals, Estates, and Trusts.

These taxes vary state by state but typically range from 0% to 5%, depending on the size of the LLC. An LLC must file a form M1 State if its total yearly receipts exceed 10 million dollars.

Frequently Asked Questions
Is an LLC necessary?
An LLC offers many benefits to businesses, including tax advantages, asset protection, and liability protection. But it isn’t always necessary for every business owner. We don’t recommend starting a business without forming an LLC. Here are some reasons why you might want to start an LLC now.
Can I pay myself a salary from my LLC in NY?
You can pay a salary from your LLC without running afoul of tax law. You might want to do that if you’re self-employed and are worried about having enough money each month to cover living expenses. If you’re thinking of setting up an LLC, here’s what you need to know about how to pay yourself a salary from one.
The most important thing to remember is that you don’t make any income from your LLC. Instead, you receive distributions from the entity — known as draws or distributions — based on the amount of equity in the LLC. These amounts are taxable to you as ordinary income. So, if you set up an LLC with 50% ownership interest, you could potentially owe taxes on half of every dollar earned by the LLC. To avoid paying taxes on those distributions, you must elect Subchapter S status. This requires filing Form 2553 with the IRS.
