BILL SMITH, PROFESSIONAL CORPORATION
How Tax Savings Works

  • The Reason is to save on Social Security Taxes.  15% per year.
  • Pay yourself a reasonable salary. ($12,000) a year and pay social security on this
    portion of the income.
  • Pay the rest out of your Professional Corporation in Dividends.  No Social Security
    of Medicare taxes are taken out of any profits you take as dividends.  
  • Must have a license to be the Professional Corporation such as a Realtor
    License.  
The IRS will require the corporation to pay you a realistic salary for your
work as an employee of the corporation.  That pay should be reported on
W2 and will be subject to the normal employer and employee FICA taxes.
