Hire your kid this summer and save on taxes!

The wages you pay your child are generally deductible as a business expense. For your child’s income tax purposes, wages received will be at least partially protected from federal income tax by his or her standard deduction. Any wages in excess of the standard deduction generally will be taxed at your child’s marginal rate, likely only 10%. So this strategy can reduce your family’s overall income tax liability.

Additional savings may be available on payroll taxes. If a business is a sole proprietorship or a partnership where both partners are the child’s parents, wages paid to a child under age 18 are generally exempt from Social Security and Medicare taxes. Wages paid to a child under age 21 are exempt from federal unemployment tax.

To qualify for these benefits, the job must be legitimate, compensation must be reasonable and proper payroll records should be maintained.
