I am currently a single member CA LLC, and in the middle of filing form 2253 (LLC ELECTING TO BE TREATED AS AN S CORPORATION).
However, for the State, I am confused as to whether anything needs to be done in CA. My understanding was for CA purposes, the entity remains an LLC. But talking to a CPA friend, he is insisting that the LLC needs to be converted to an S-Corp in CA

I am clear on the process of converting an LLC to a corporation in CA, but my question is whether this is necessary in my case. I would prefer to leave the entity as an LLC taxed as S-Corp. Is there a reason why it may be preferable to go way vs the other, as far as the CA state is concerned.
