Although a trust can be a permitted shareholder in an S corporation, only certain kinds of trusts are so permitted under Section 1361 of the Internal Revenue Code. If a trust is not one of the trusts specifically authorized by the Internal Revenue Code, however, and becomes a shareholder, the Corporation ceases to be a qualified S corporation and will be taxed as an ordinary C corporation. Thus, when a Living Trust becomes the owner of S corporation stock, there can be resulting difficulties for both the Grantor’s heirs and for the S corporation itself if an estate lawyer is not involved.

Revocable living trusts don’t protect your assets from people with legal claims against you because you’re treated as the owner of the trust assets. However, if you put assets in an irrevocable trust—one you don’t control and can’t revoke—then then those assets typically won’t be considered yours and may not be available to creditors. Learn various distinctions in this episode of the Bottled Business Sense Show.
