[quote=Anonymous]OP here.   I have a good reason to ask, and ample reason to fire for cause.  That said, the nanny has many other good qualities, and I hate to see anyone not getting paid.

I had researched the maximum rate in DC (7.00%) -- but there is nothing I could find on-line that was helpful in terms of how much the rate would actually go up for an household employer with one employee.  The baseline rate is 2.7%.  The DC tax office just says that it assigns and "experience rate" to the employer, based on, among other things, how much tax it has paid, how long employees stay, etc.  The "experience rate" sticks with you for years.     I read the information to say that the tax is based only on the fist $9000 paid annually.

Anybody who has practical experience with this in DC?   I have heard of a couple of Virginia stories (including one where the family successfully fought it, and another where their rate went from .01 percent to 1 percent) and one in DC where the nanny sought unemployment but was denied where she quit without notice.

But none on how much the rate would go up in similar circumstances in DC.     [/quote]
