Can a sole proprietor hire their spouse if the spouse already works somewhere else on a full or part-time basis?
Yes, an employed spouse certainly has the right and the ability to work for a self-employed spouse part-time, while holding another job elsewhere on a full- or part-time basis. The truth is that most spouses (and many children) of self-employed businesspeople help in the family business, in a variety of functions, as needed, part-time, without being fairly compensated. The net family income from the business can be substantially increased, simply by lowering the taxes. 9.
