"my husband just started the same business"

If this LLC is a Single-member Disregarded entity as a Sole Proprietorship, the Spouse can be paid through payroll; but you really need to work with your own CPA, as that might not be the Best option out of others, such as Joint Venture or Multi-Member LLC.

Get good, personal, professional guidance on this. This is Not a QB question. You are asking about Legal entity options.
