Potential Tax Savings by switching to an Scorp
What is an S Corporation (S-Corp)?
An S corp or S corporation is a business structure that is permitted under the tax code to pass its taxable income, credits, deductions, and losses directly to its shareholders.
Where do these tax savings come from?
As an LLC, you pay employment tax on the entirety of your income. When filing as an S-Corp, you only pay this on the salary you draw. The remainder of your profit is taxed as a distribution, which is often a tax advantage.
