Hello mideco 25, thanks for joining us!
You asked, if there were any advantages to employing family members.
Yes, there can be some advantages to hiring certain family members. If you are self-employed or own a business, you can hire your children. This will allow you to deduct the wages, you pay them as a business expense, while also lowering your overall taxable business income.
For more information on the tax treatment of family membs working in the family business, please refer to:
Hopefully this helps!
