    COBRA Payments by an S-Corp for a 2% shareholder

    I have a client that has two former employees now as 2% shareholders of the S-corp.

    The S-corp is reimbursing the employees for the total cost of the COBRA payments.

    According to Publication 15-B (2010), the COBRA payments are considered accident and heal benefit payments.

    According to the same Publication 15-B, these reimbursements must be included in the employee (2% shareholder) wages subject to federal income tax withholding.

    Is my logic correct and complete for this conclusion?

    Thank you.
