Meet Rubén de Gracia
What to know before you form a US LLC.
Will a US LLC reduce my taxes?
Not automatically. The answer depends on where the owner lives, what the business does, where the work is performed, who the clients are, and how the LLC is treated for tax purposes. We review those points before recommending a setup.
Can I form a US LLC if I live in France, Germany, Switzerland or the UK?
In many cases, yes. The more important question is whether it fits how you work and what obligations it creates where you live. We consider both before recommending it.
What does LLC Complete include?
Complete includes the setup review, formation, custom company records, registered agent and business address for 12 months, banking guidance, launch support, one private strategy session, a compliance calendar, and the first standard federal filing using Forms 5472 and 1120 pro forma when applicable. We confirm any state-specific or non-standard work before we begin.
Does Complete include Forms 5472 and 1120 pro forma?
Yes, for the first filing in the standard case described on this page and when those forms apply. Multiple members, a different tax election or an active US trade or business are reviewed separately.
How is the final fee determined?
We review the state, setup, and work required, then send you a written proposal. Any non-standard filing or extra work is agreed before we begin.
Is a bank account included?
No. We guide you through the usual documents and application steps, but the bank or fintech controls the review and final decision.
Will I receive support, or is this only a filing service?
Complete is a supported setup service, not a document-only filing. We work through the state and setup decisions, stay involved until the company and its records are ready to use, and confirm the key decisions and next steps in writing. Any tax or legal work outside the agreed service is quoted separately.
How does the private review session work?
LLC Complete includes one private 45-minute session with Rubén de Gracia. Use it at the start, during launch, or later within the first 12 months for the decision or question where his perspective is most useful.
I need a custom international tax plan. Is that the same service?
No. LLC Complete is for founders who have decided to form and launch a US LLC. The custom International Tax Plan starts one step earlier: it reviews your personal and business position, tax residence, companies, assets, and goals before deciding which structure or jurisdiction makes sense. It can also coordinate implementation and ongoing support. The work and fee depend on the complexity of the case.
What if I do not yet know which service I need?
If you have already decided to form a US LLC and need help with the state, setup, and launch, Complete is designed for that. If you need to compare jurisdictions, reorganize several companies, or design an international tax strategy from the ground up, ask about the custom International Tax Plan. LLC Complete forms and launches a US LLC; the custom plan determines which structure you should use.
How long does the process take?
Timing depends on the state, your documents, and government processing times. After the initial review, we give you a current estimate and keep you updated throughout the process.
What happens after the first 12 months?
Before the registered agent, address, or annual services expire, we can send you a proposal for the next period. Nothing renews automatically.
TWO WAYS TO WORK WITH ELITELIA
Tell us what you need your LLC to do.
Tell us how you plan to use the company. We will recommend Formation or Complete and confirm exactly what we will handle before work begins.
The initial conversation confirms whether the service fits your needs and what it will cover. Country-specific tax or legal advice and non-standard cases require a separate review.
