Tax benefit for a club if registered in NY Vs Florida
We are incorporated in New Hampshire but have a member who moved to Maine, which has a personal income tax.
Will we need to file in Maine?

Is there a tax advantage to using a Florida address for the
club vs New York. Is there a tax benefit to the club
members?
No. Only clubs based in ME that meet certain criteria have to file a state return.

An "incorporated" entity with a "member" sounds odd. Are you certain about those two words in this context? It might be relevant when thinking about taxes.
Thanks

Michael,

Those words were chosen carefully. It is possible to have a corporate partner in a partnership. While it is extremely unlikely in the context of an investment club, it has happened in the past. Since most investment clubs have partners who are individuals, revocable trusts, or occasionally estates of deceased members, filing in FL wouldn't be an issue.
