MN2V Posted February 25, 2008 Report Share Posted February 25, 2008 I have a part time farmer who paid his wife in commodity wages. Are these subject to SE and/or employment taxes? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OldJack Posted February 25, 2008 Report Share Posted February 25, 2008 Yes, SE tax, if the commodities were sold. The commodities have the same classification in the hands of the wife as they did in the hands of the husband. Husband gets a Sch-F deduction only in the year wife sells and wife has Sch-F income in the year sold subject to SE tax. No payroll employment taxes.
