    Late S-Corp Election, Late Filing Penalties?

    I feel like this should be a basic question but haven't been able to find the answer - tons of stuff on late S-corp elections but nothing covering the $195 per month per shareholder late filing penalty. (If it's there, it's buried in all the general late S-corp election information.)

    So, let's assume single member LLC previously filing Schedule C. The 1040 return is on extension. We'll assume they file their return by 7/15 and make the late S-corp election. So the S-corp return is at that point 4 months late, right? Would they have an $780 penalty for the late filing?

    I'm 99% sure they will abate the penalty if you call tax practioner hotline with a POA and ask.
