Don't lose your company to a missed deadline.
FilingGuard tracks the key compliance deadlines for your business entities — including federal filings that can carry a $25,000 IRS penalty for certain foreign-owned U.S. entities — and reminds you well before each one. FilingGuard tracks deadlines and sends reminders — it does not prepare or submit filings.
Many owners never hear about Form 5472 until it's too late.
Certain foreign-owned U.S. entities may need to file Form 5472 when they have reportable transactions with a related party. The filing may apply even when the business has no taxable income. Failure to submit a required form can trigger a $25,000 penalty.

Questions, answered.
What is Form 5472 and why does it matter?
It's a US federal filing that applies to certain foreign-owned single-member LLCs with reportable related-party transactions — and it can apply even in years with no income or activity. The penalty for missing a required filing starts at $25,000. Many owners never learn it applies to them — which is exactly why FilingGuard flags it automatically.
Which jurisdictions do you cover?
US states and Canadian federal and provincial entities, with a particular focus on non-resident owners who juggle obligations across borders. Add an entity and you'll see exactly what it owes.
Is FilingGuard a law firm or accountant?
No. FilingGuard is a private deadline-tracking service — not a government agency, law firm, or tax advisor, and it doesn't provide legal or tax advice. We help you see and stay ahead of your obligations. For interpretation, we'll point you to a qualified professional.
How do the reminders reach me?
Email and text message, at the lead times you choose — up to 90, 60, 30, 7, and 1 day before each deadline. They escalate in urgency as the date gets closer.
Can you file the paperwork for me?
Yes — add "File it for me" on any plan and our team handles the filing for a per-filing fee. Otherwise, FilingGuard keeps you informed and you file yourself.
