If you are a start-up founder looking to sell your company and you meet the criteria discussed in this video, you’ll be able to exclude up to $10,000,000 in gains from that sale on your personal tax return. THAT’S HUGE!!!!

In the video, I will also show you where to report this gain exclusion in your personal tax return. Hint: its tax form 8949.

The following are some of the important requirements you need to meet:

1. Establish a C-Corp - taxed as a C-Corp from day one. - have to have made this election from the start;
2. You have to have acquired the stock directly from the company - not from someone else;
3. The assets can’t be greater than $50M;
4. You have to hold the stock for at least 5 years;
5. Some industries, unfortunately, don’t qualify: personal services (architecture, consulting, legal), financial services, oil/gas, farming;
6. Finally, you need to exit in a stock sale, not asset sale - this is very important. Buyers want to buy the assets - in small transactions so they can depreciate the assets to reduce the cost of the acquisition and not incur any liabilities.

If you have any questions, please leave them in the comments below.

Thank you for watching my video.
