    S Corp and W2

    Good Afternoon

    I have two clients who will be purchasing a business and an investment, however will not be participating in the day to day business. They will own 50% each and will have a manager and employee and sub contractors working, again they will not participate in the day to day activities. Do I need to issue them paychecks (W2 at the end of the year?). I am thinking this would be consider passive income/Losses!

    Thank you in advance.
