Do Sub-S Distributions Count As Income When Collecting SS Benefits Prior To Full Retirement Age?
Do Sub-S Distributions count as income when collecting SS benefits prior to the full retirement age?
Hi,
Distributions from a subchapter S corporation only count as earnings for Social Security earnings test purposes if the distributions are classified as self-employment earnings. Distributions classified as unearned dividends would not count as earnings for earnings test purposes.
Best, Jerry
