Sorry, I did a search and can't find any old threads going over this.
I will talk to a CPA, but I would like to just have a baseline. My salary next year will be W2, can I create a sole proprietorship or LLC or S corp and pay myself (ie: 300k salary and 100k distribution). I'd like to use this to max out my 401k (I believe it is 25% salary or max 50k) and put money in a cash balance account. Also, I'd like to deduct real estate and expenses from there. I don't understand QBI, but I think that also factors in.
My main question is can I set up a S corp and have my W2 salary funnel into that? Could I still get all the benefits from the W2 and just the salary portion go toward the s corp and cut my tax burden from there?
Thank you!
