comment Can an LLC operate under two separate business names?
Note that it is not required in all states to register a DBA. See the comment on this website: sba.gov/content/…. I could not find a clear list of which states do and which states don't require DBA registration, though.

comment Ballpark figure on one-time tax accountant fees
Thanks! In case there's anybody out there who can give a ballpark on the hours/cost of this, it would be highly appreciated (I'll leave this open for a few days and accept your answer if there is no response).

comment Ballpark figure on one-time tax accountant fees
Thanks. Re pricing: I really like to get an idea of the actual cost. So in other words, how many hours would answering these questions reasonably take? And can I negotiate a price for the information (providing the questions upfront), or is it always an 'per-hour' fee with an unknown number of hours to be spent on writing up the answers?

comment Tax obligations of foreign operations for a US LLC
Thanks. I've been Googling a lot but can find surprisingly little information about rules that apply with foreign LLC owners and/or operations from other countries as LLC. But I guess I'll try to go through all IRS info and see if they have details on this. And thanks for the attorney/accountant option. This also has my preference but I do not yet have the budget for this...

Great, thanks for your reply. It does sound like a hassle, but believe, me, all is better than incorporating locally (things like 4 tax declarations per month are just one of the many 'niceties' of the system). So I'll rather try to get to the bottom of this. Do you happen to have any links to read more about the different topics you mentioned? Thanks!

@RoryAlsop Thanks for your message. I read that The intent behind FATCA is to keep US persons from hiding income and assets overseas. So it appears to not really apply in my situation. I'll read the document to make sure though. Thanks for mentioning this.
