Company Background - The corporation has been fully inactive with no operations, no revenue, no expenses, and no payroll. - The only remaining item on the balance sheet is a loan receivable owed back to the company. - Once this loan is repaid, the remaining liabilities will be cleared and the company will be formally closed. - Target timeline for dissolution: March 2026.

Deliverables - Final Form 1120 (marked “Final Return”) - Final Form 5472 (if applicable) Filing confirmations - A short closure checklist - Please provide a fixed price quote and an estimated turnaround time.
