Form 5472

This form reports financial transactions between your LLC and related parties.  

 

Who is a Related Party?  

A Related Party is any person or entity that has a significant connection to the LLC.

 

The IRS defines related parties broadly, including:  

- The LLC owner (you)

- Family members of the owner, such as:  

  - Spouse  

  - Parents  

  - Children  

  - Siblings  

  - Grandparents  

  - Grandchildren

  - Companies where the owner owns more than 50%  

  - Subsidiaries of the LLC  

  - Parent or holding companies  

- Business partners who share control over decision-making  

- Trusts or foundations where the owner has a significant interest  

 

If your LLC has had transactions with any of these parties, these transactions and information on the related parties must be reported.  

 

 

What Transactions Must Be Reported?

Monetary Transactions (January 1 – December 31, 2024): 

- Payments between the LLC and the owner or related parties  

- Sales and purchases of goods or property

We report all transactions between the LLC and the Related Party, whether incoming to or outgoing from the LLC
