[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Why are people so obsessed with this topic???[/quote]

Because they're suddenly realizing that they should've been paying taxes on their domestic help, and now they're trying to justify themselves.

Realistically, they'll be under the radar of the IRS.  But if the IRS did ever come a knocking, I would bet in most of these cases the IRS would define their domestic help as employees and fine them.

Of course, some of these people are paying under the table, with or without realizing it (i.e. writing a personal check out to a person).

But in either case , paying under the table or not paying payroll taxes, people should be honest with themselves.

And seriously, if a person has any doubts, they should call an accountant, a tax or employment attorney, and/or the IRS directly.  But my guess is the OP doesn't want to do that because they're afraid of what the answer is, so they post the question here in the hopes they'll get a lot of people telling them what they want to hear.

Is there a rash in audits of housecleaners?. My colleague got audited and he did not get nailed for his $100/wk cash cleaner or his cash babysitter. They were busy looking at his 7 figure income.[/quote]
Haven't heard of any rash in audits of housecleaners, just domestic payroll companies trying to drum up more business.[/quote]
