I have just signed up for a personal LLC.  I have an EIN number. I have expenses but no income.  I bought Turbo Tax Home and Business.  Do I need to report the expenses.  Do I need to set up the company in turbo tax?

    If the business was not up and running, you shouldn't report the expenses or the LLC on your tax return. You will deduct them as start-up expenses when you are up and running. Otherwise, you can enter them in the self-employed section and take a deduction for the expenses even though you have no income. Up and running would mean you were actively seeking customers or clients and able to service them.
