Client is active participant in subchapter s business. She was paid salary of $10,000 and has $4200 or ordinary income. I've read conflicting information for the treatment of the $4,200 in calculating the EIC. Since it is not subject to SE tax, do I have to claim it as passive income for the EIC, thus making her ineligible. Any help will be appreciated. (The Subchapter S is an LLC, having filed an election to be taxed as a Sub S.)
