Yes, a corporation can deduct its matching FICA taxes as a business expense on its tax return. The FICA taxes, which include Social Security and Medicare taxes, are considered payroll taxes, and the employer's portion is deductible. This deduction helps reduce the corporation's taxable income, ultimately lowering its overall tax liability.

Under the Federal Insurance Contributions Act (FICA), partners in a partnership are generally not considered employees of the partnership for tax purposes. Instead, they are treated as self-employed individuals. This means that they are responsible for paying self-employment taxes on their share of the partnership's income, rather than having FICA taxes withheld from their earnings as employees would.
