Nonqualified deferred comp means it is deductible when the recipient includes it in income.

I'm not really sure how it works for a self-employed person. How is he "deferring" it?

EDIT: rereading. I think he gets the "deduction" in effect, because the medical center is only paying him the net after the deferral. Therefore his reportable income is net of the deferral.

The more I know the more I don’t know.
