Although it is generally recommended to pay yourself a "reasonable salary" from your S-corporation, you can choose to have no salary or less than reasonable compensation if you do not want or cannot pay yourself a salary. 

 

In future years, when you and your daughter do pay yourselves salaries, you can read the IRS Fact Sheet Wage Compensation for S Corporation Officers for guidelines on establishing reasonable salaries.
