Hello Folks,

do you usually file the 5472 and 1120 yourself self or do you engage someone expert to do it?

I want to engage someone to help me do it correctly, but the fees are super hight.

I found some folks in Upwork doing it with a reasonable price, what do you think folks? any guiance on that?

Honest question, how/why are you incorporated without an accountant you trust? But, if your accountant isn't available anymore, and you're looking for a new one.... I can't imagine Upwork is the place to find one. By "reasonable" I assume you mean cheap. When the penalty for not filing or filing incorrectly one of these forms is $10k, not sure I'd be looking for an accountant on Upwork...

I would say you'd be much better off with something like myexpattaxes.com , there are other apps like it, but I've been pretty happy with this one. They handle filing of foreign corporations, it costs more, but at least you know they are set up to handle most situations

I'm a non-US resident and I have an LLC incorporated in Delaware, myexpattaxes.com will work for me as well
