8832 effective date

The client filed form 8832 late to convert llc to c-corp. Then he received a letter from the IRS that the effective date changed to May 2021 instead of 1/1/2021.

While the client use calendar tax year, should he file as a llc or c-corp for year 2021?

Thanks advance.

If the effective date is truly in May seems like they would need to file both (LLC & Corp)
Question is can the effective date be modified.

Appears there are Relief provisions when Form 8832 or Form 2553 is not timely filed.
Link below is a decent article
