Description:

This PodCast covers some of the things you need to consider if your children are on your payroll.

Paying your children to work in your business can make sense both for the business and from a family tax planning standpoint, but you have to take care to justify that the children are truly being paid for actual business work.  This was the little item that caused the taxpayer problems in the case of Alexander v. Commissioner, TC Summary 2006-127. 

While the case may mainly demonstrate the truth of the old "pigs/hogs" tax saying, the opinion also helps illustrate issues that need to be considered when a close relative is placed on the payroll.  You can download the materials for this podcast at http://edzollars.com/2006-08-26_But_My_Kids_Are_Worth_It.pdf
