I will precisely prepare your founder 83b election on time
Licensed US Corporate Attorney Elite Startup and VC Ready Formation
About this Gig
Missing the 30-day window to file your 83(b) election is the #1 most expensive mistake a startup founder can make. If your shares are subject to vesting, failing to file this form with the IRS can result in crippling "phantom tax" bills as your company grows in value.
As a licensed US Attorney (Bar #335296), I provide exact, legally sound preparation of your IRS Form 83(b). The IRS does not accept digital filings for this form; it must be mailed physically. I will provide you with the flawlessly drafted forms, cover letters, and exact, step-by-step instructions on how to sign and mail them to guarantee IRS compliance.
Why choose this gig?
- Zero Errors: Rejections cause missed deadlines. I ensure 100% accuracy.
- Time-Sensitive: Delivered rapidly so you don't miss your 30-day post-stock-issuance deadline.
- Professional: No calls required. Just fill out my quick questionnaire.

FAQ
When is the absolute deadline for the 83(b) election?
You have precisely 30 days from the date your restricted stock is granted/issued to you.
Can you e-file or mail this to the IRS for me?
The IRS requires a physical wet signature from the taxpayer. I prepare everything perfectly; you just sign and mail it.
Does a non-US founder need to file an 83(b)?
Yes, if you plan to ever become a US taxpayer or if the company is a US entity, it is highly recommended by tax professionals.
Why do I need a Spousal Consent form?
If you live in a community property state (like CA or TX), your spouse must consent to the election to ensure legal validity.
What if I already missed the 30-day deadline?
Unfortunately, the IRS is strict, and there is generally no cure for a missed deadline. Consult a CPA immediately.
