A taxpayer owes $2500 on her personal taxes. She pays for it with a check from a SMLLC filing as a C Corp. Does this $2500 become a distribution to its owner taxable as a dividend??

Why not record it as a loan to the Shareholder? Need corporate minutes and interest on the loan.Jiggers, EA -

This makes sense, but I have a problem with taxpayers who simply add to the "loan" every time they need money and never pay it back. Just like ATSMAN says.
I think I will do this, and insist the next time they are paid on a 1099, deduct the amount from the payment.Comment

Why not? Because then it needs to be paid back.
I thought 1099-NEC forms did not need to be issued to corporations. To pay back a loan, doesn't the shareholder need to come up with money out of their own (after tax) pocket, not from the revenues of the corporation or any other business they operate?

RR - But Corporations must issue 1099s to others. In this case, the LLC filing as a C Corp pays its owner for compensation.Comment
