Fringe Benefits For Family Employees
Redleaf National Institute, which specializes in support for child care providers, has a very interesting look at the recent Speltz Tax Court case that I mentioned a few weeks ago, where it was accepted that family employees can be compensated in the form of tax free benefits in lieu of actual paychecks. This is written by Tom Copeland, the director of RNI, who successfully represented the clients against the IRS and in Tax Court.
RNI has quite a few excellent tax related articles, such as this one on how to properly document the use of family employees, which is crucial for defending their deductions, including when they are only compensated with benefits.
