    Can a Minor set up an LLC?

    Can a minor set up an LLC ?  If yes, can they chose to file as an S Corp? Also, can it be set up with another adult(who is not a parent, more of a business partner)? State is CA.

    That's a legal question.

    As was pointed out, forming a legal entity (and figuring out its complications) is something that needs to be brought to a business attorney.  Asking questions on any online forum is not a good idea - it should be brought to a professional that specializes in it, or else you are likely going to be doing something wrong.

    Since you asked about S Corp, it's also a Labor Standards question, because now you are veering into Payroll for minors.
