I haven't heard of this before now. This could be a significant factor for many companies. Do others have thoughts on this?
BestQuestion wrote:The more I dig into this topic, the more confused I became. Opinions are all over the place. And most of them are from well-respected people in taxation area. Does anyone know why the IRS does not make official guidance on all these issues? I think they know too that everyone is trying to speculate and interpret these confusing rules in vain, is it right?

It makes absolutely no sense that they would allow the wages of a 49% shareholder to count toward the ERC, but not the wages of a 51% shareholder, when both of those individuals would be limited to the cap of $10,000 each. I understand not allowing the wages of individuals related to them, as the 51% shareholder has the ability to add those relatives to the payroll in order to get ERC funds. Shareholders themselves are required to draw a salary if active, and they would be limited as to the amount of ERC they could get.
