When to go from Sole Proprietorship Side Hustle to LLC

[TBTINT18]

How do you know when its time to convert your sole proprietorship side hustle to an LLC? And then once the LLC is established, is paying estimated Quarterly Taxes required?

@TBTINT18, it is generally a good idea to register any business that you are doing as an entity, especially in the vehicle of a limited liability company (LLC), to shield yourself from personal liability as much as possible.  Regarding paying that estimated taxes, you have to do that quarterly whether you are a sole proprietor or a disregarded LLC for tax purposes.  If you choose to register the LLC entity as an S-Corp or C-Corp, your withholding taxes will take care of the quarterly reporting for you.
