S‑Corp Owners: You're on the IRS Audit List
Taking distributions without paying yourself a reasonable salary can trigger back payroll taxes, penalties, and interest.
One defensible compensation report can help protect your tax savings before the IRS reclassifies what you took.
Why Every S Corp Owner Needs an Annual Salary Review
- Paying yourself too little puts you on the IRS radar. If the IRS determines your salary is too low, it can reclassify your distributions as wages — triggering back payroll taxes, penalties, and interest. What felt like a smart tax move becomes a very expensive mistake.
- Paying yourself too much costs you money too. Distributions from your S-Corp are not subject to self-employment tax. Every dollar you overpay yourself in salary is a dollar that could have come out as a tax-free distribution. Most owners don't realize they're leaving money on the table.
- There is no IRS-approved safe number. The IRS doesn't publish a formula. Without a documented, data-backed analysis, you're guessing — and guessing puts you at risk from both directions.
- Catching it early is always cheaper than fixing it after an audit. A yearly review keeps your compensation defensible, optimized, and aligned with IRS expectations before anyone comes asking questions.
