Net investment income tax of a QSST 1411(a)(2)). The tax also applies to QSSTs to the extent the net investment income is retained in the trust. Although the S corporation income of a QSST is taxed to the individual income beneficiary, capital gain on the sale of the S corporation stock is taxed at the trust level.
Background. A QSST is one of several types of trusts that are eligible to hold stock in an S corporation. Its two primary requirements are (1) there can be only one beneficiary of the trust and (2) all income must be distributed at least annually (Sec. 1361(d)(3)(B)).
Testamentary trusts. These trusts, which are established by your will, are eligible S corporation shareholders for up to two years after the transfer and then must either distribute the stock to an eligible shareholder or qualify as a QSST or ESBT.
An irrevocable grantor trust can own S corporation stock if it meets IRS regulations. The trust must contain language stating that all the ordinary income the trust earns along with the original trust assets are owned by the trust grantor.
A Qualified Subchapter S Trust, commonly referred to as a QSST Election, or a Q-Sub election, is a Qualified Subchapter S Subsidiary Election made on behalf of a trust that retains ownership as the shareholder of an S corporation, a corporation in the United States which votes to be taxed.
TRUSTS COMMONLY USED TO HOLD S CORPORATION STOCK Three commonly used types of ongoing trusts qualify as S corporation shareholders: grantor trusts, qualified subchapter S trusts (QSSTs) and electing small business trusts (ESBTs).
Irrevocable trusts are often set up as grantor trusts, which simply means that they are not recognized for income tax purposes (all of the income tax attributes of the trust, such as income, loss, gains, etc. is passed on to the grantor of the trust).
An irrevocable trust that is setup as a grantor trust, qualified subchapter S trust or as an electing small business trust may own shares of an S corporation.
The main difference between an ESBT and a QSST is that an ESBT may have multiple income beneficiaries, and the trust does not have to distribute all income. Unlike with the QSST, the trustee, rather than the beneficiary, must make the election.
