Thank you for getting back to me. I was an employee who made an investment with cash in an LLC in 2003 including preferred stock in 2003.

The LLC filed for bankruptcy in 2023 . The equity interests were deemed a total loss.

How do I report this on my tax return?

An LLC can't issue stock, but an S-corporation could. We still need clarity on what you actually did. And, are you a member of the LLC (a partner) or an employee.

Employee

Your question is not clear. We don't know anything about your business, your employment, or your tax situation, except what you write in your posts. Here are some more questions to try to clarify the situation.

What does the employee have to do with the investment?

Are you the employee, or is someone else the employee?

Who invested in the business - you? an employee of yours?

Who has the loss?

Are you an employee of the business that you invested in?

Did you invest in a business that is owned by someone who is your employee?

Did an employee of a business that you own invest in your business?
