[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Also why would this person want to go this route of somehow exposing my lack of payroll taxes if they also didn’t claim this income on their own taxes? It was only a couple hundred a month.

And how would it benefit me to pay them more? It would just expose me to more taxes I assume. It wouldn’t be in place of paying the taxes. [/quote]

How much hourly were you paying this person? Were you paying under minimum wage? Is that why they are asking for more?[/quote]

Above minimum wage [/quote]

Really? Cause elsewhere you said a couple of hundred a month for 1-2 hours per day on weekdays. [/quote]
If the person only worked 1-2 hours per day then they don’t qualify for minimum wage in VA (which is just now $12/hr). https://www.doli.virginia.gov/wp-content/uploads/2022/11/Minimum-Wage-Act-Notice-2023.pdf

If they made $12/hr for 45 hours a month that $540. If OP paid more than $12, still likely a couple hundred based on low hours.[/quote]

They were paid about $400 per month for 1-2 hours a day[/quote]
You have to make at least $12k to be required to file taxes. If they made $400 a month they wouldn’t hit 12k. So the worry about them paying their own taxes is null. [/quote]
