What is a loan-out?

A loan-out typically means an individual has formed a business and has an EIN. When paying a loan-out, they will be classified as a contractor, receive a 1099-MISC against their EIN, and no employer payroll withholdings will be owed.

It is also worth noting that minors who are actors in NY, CA, LA and NM who also have a loan out will be expected to make their own deposits to their Coogan Trust accounts.

When hiring an employee, how do taxes work?

When one pays an employee, states and the federal government require employers and employees to pay taxes.

For instance, if an employer pays an employee $1,000 in gross wages - the employer may owe $150 in employer taxes and the employee may owe $100 in employee taxes. This means that the employer will pay out $1,150 and the employee will receive $900. Then, all the taxes are sent to state and federal governments.

We recommend estimating your payroll to get a precise idea of how much employer tax to expect.
