W2 Wages For S Corporation Officers

See: Wage Compensation for S Corporation Officers<

When corporate officers perform services for the corporation, and receive or are entitled to receive payments, their compensation is generally considered wages.  Subchapter S corporations should treat payments for services to officers as wages and not as distributions of cash and property or loans to shareholders… 

"Distributions and other payments by an S corporation to a corporate officer must be treated as wages to the extent the amounts are reasonable compensation for services rendered to the corporation."

As your accounting and tax consultants, we advise our S Corporations to pay a Reasonable Salary to its officers who work for the company.

What is a Form 8752 & Why Do I Need To File It?

"Form 8752 - Required Payment or Refund Under Section 7519" is certainly not the clearest form title.

Simply:

The IRS asks Fiscal Year, S Corporations, and Partnerships to file a Form 8752. The IRS then holds in an escrow-like account an estimate of you would have paid if you operated on a calendar year end. Essentially its like a security deposit that a landlord may require from a tenant.

However, since it is "in escrow" you receive a portion of the funds back if your profit decreases from year to year, and your receive the funds back in total if there is a tax loss or the business is dissolved.
