Popis: One of the significant issues that has arisen in connection with limited liability companies (LLCs) electing to be taxed as a partnership is the application of self-employment tax to its members. The issue of when an LLC member’s distributive share of LLC income is subject to self-employment tax has not been definitively answered. This paper reviews the current rules on when an LLC member’s distributive share of LLC income is subject to self-employment tax and analyzes proposals that have been made to clarify the law in this area.
