What constitutes a "qualifed business" or a SSTB?

[Penelope]

Perhaps it is best to back into this by first addressing what it is NOT. Those industries that are specifically excluded from being deemed a Specified Service Trade or Business (SSTB) include:

· real estate brokers;

· property managers;

· architects;

· engineers and

· bankers.

If you own, passively or otherwise, a business in any of the above industries you clearly are organized and paid your Washington lobbyists well.

So what qualifies as a SSTB, pretty much everything I can think of , how about all in the list above, they all provide a service.
