- I do not have any information specifically for what you are asking.
- One thing I have heard is that one advantage you have with S- Corporation
- is that you do not have to pay any social security tax on the net
- dividends that are passed on to the share holders. This is difference
- from single-proprietership where there is 15+% social security taxes.
- Can someone verify if this is true? In the books I read, no one has
- quoted this as an advantage of S-corp. May be I am missing something here?
