RE: [taxchat] Husband-Wife LLC & OIH

That is also my understanding: a sole member can file a Sch C, but not a H & W.

I believe that an LLC can not elect to be treated as two Schedule Cs.

Donna,
 
I was waiting for someone smarter than me to answer your question - but why not 2 Sch C's allocated between H & W instead of 1065?
 
See Pub 587 for all your answers and more. www.irs.gov  Search - Pub 587.

Husband and wife run a business together out of their home. Because they are an LLC, they can't be a qualifed joint venture and file on Sch C.  I will file a 1065 for 2008.
 
I think I know the answer to my question, but I would appreciate someone confirming my thoughts. How should they take credit for office in home expenses for the business? Should we just calculate what the appropriate amounts should be, and have them write a check out of the business to reimburse themselves?   And when would be the best time to do this?  Quarterly?  And what about for the 4th quarter? If the payment is made in January (they are cash basis), that would be taken on next year's return.
 
Comments are appreciated.
Donna
