Yes. It may cause issues with the IRS if you do not properly allocate your compensation.

 

To properly allocate your earnings and avoid double taxation, do the following:

 

  1. Identify when during the year you elected to file as an S-Corp
  2. Report any earnings as a sole proprietor on Schedule C (subject to self-employment tax)
  3. Report any earnings as an S-Corp on Form 1120-S (not subject to self-employment tax)
