Can I pay myself a salary if I own a LLC or a partnership?

No. Partners in a partnership receive their income from the profits of the organization. The profits are taxed to each partner via K-1 form. A partner can received a “Guaranteed Payment”. A Guaranteed Payment is a payment made to a partner for services or for the use of money. The payment is paid regardless of partnership profits, and is not subject to income tax.
