I assume your wife does book keeping or admin work for your business? If so that's a very common and defensible way to split income.
I am looking into paying my wife an arms-length salary commiserate with staying home with our children.
Anyone have any info on that surviving audit? I know it's specifically disallowed when the caregiver is related, but that seems punitive. Wonder what case law there is on this...
