An LLC (Limited Liability Company) should give you the same protections and tax
write-off as a corp
except with less paperwork.

That i dont know for sure, i incorporated so there would be less questions from the
IRS, got a taxid
the whole thing, separate checking acct, credit cards, so there is a definite
separation between
business money and personal money.

You can't write off training?????

Joe do you actually have to get incorporated or can you just file as a
private business? - E

You can't write off training. you need to get incorporated. I'm a business entity and if/when the company i work for won't pay for training, you can bet it will get written off on my taxes, that includes all of the oracle books, OCP exams, you name it, it gets deducted as a legitimate company expense.
2 years ago the company i was working for didnt want to send me to openworld(and I knew i'd be leaving in less than 2months anyways), so i ate the cost and wrote the entire trip off.

Patrice,
There is "resistance" to any training that I feel is necessary to further my
knowledge and/or enhance my understanding of the Oracle processes. Even
though I have money in the budget for such items I have to submit a business
case defining the gains to the company and after completing the course with
a passing grade the company will reimburse me the expenses for the course
only. I also have to sign a waver that I will pay the company back the full
cost of the course if I leave their employment before 365 days. Needless to
say I pay for everything myself and hope to write it off on taxes if they
ever get the bill signed into law.

>>> BoivinP_at_mar.dfo-mpo.gc.ca 08/13/01 11:46AM >>> Just out of curiosity, how many days / weeks of real training did your employer provide you with in the last couple of years?
"real" is in quotes, I don't mean the little 1 - 3 day seminars given by CareerTrack and other "training" companies, or management-related stuff like little MBA-flavoured certificates from universities.
Oh, and did the amount of training you received match what you were told during your job interview?
