Tell me where to report my neighbor who isn't paying taxes on her cleaning lady. NoVa.


Is the person hired by the hour once per week? When I hire a housekeeping or landscaping company to mow my yard once per week, I cut a check and THEY have to declare the income on THEIR company taxes. I can't DEDUCT the cost of cleaning or landscaping on MY taxes unless I'm renting the home out as a business.

I'm confused by your statement.

Exactly. They are independent contractors, responsible for their own taxes. We are not required to pay SS on behalf of these people....they do it themselves (or are supposed to).

OP here. Yeah, you're right - the current ones abusing the system will be tougher, from both the illegal herself as well as the employer exploiting her. But at least let's turn off the spigot.

(I have a cleaning lady. She is a U.S. citizen, so I'm not a hypocrite.)


If you have an individual person, the threshold is $2000/year:

Any individual whom you employ to provide services in your home whom you pay directly AND whose total payments in the calendar year meets the IRS household employment threshold ($2000 currently) must receive a W-2 from the employer (family) and the household employer must pay the payroll taxes. According to the U.S. Department of Labor employee and independent contractor advise, “most workers [who are classified as independent contractors] are employees under the FLSA’s broad definitions.”

Seems to me it's the legal immigrants who are angry with the illegals - and for good reason. I'm all for going after business owners who hire them. Please do!

Exactly.

OP here. That's in the plan!! Trump wants to require employers to use E-verify.

As far as legal immigrants, this plan calls for a point-based system (like Canada and Australia use) in determining whom to admit. Basically, it aims to ensure that those admitted will be net contributors to our country, and thus points are given for things like high educational attainment. The way things are laid out now, it will be tough to get in (special circumstances like assylum seekers are exempted), but again....a starting point for negotiations.


Oops....forgot link. (Note to self: Drink coffee; then post!)

I'm sure the libsters will pick apart the points they disagree with (which will be many) and use this to viciously attack Trump voters once again, but....fellow conservatives....don't you believe much of this is just common sense?

Fabulous! Glad to see this moving forward.
