[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I know I screwed up and a lot I have excuses reasonable and unreasonable so hearing “you should have done it” won’t help me. I know. I had a nanny a few years ago that was legally here but not a citizen. I paid her cash, always thinking we were leaving the city and it was temporary. I asked her about the correct forms and Care.com and printed out the forms and for her own excuses too and my lack of checking, those forms were never done. Due to my job, I need to back pay, I need to fix this, I can’t sleep, I keep thinking the IRS will come and put me in jail. I know I need to pay taxes and penalties and am willing to pay it so I can have a clean slate and not be delinquent. I don’t know the nanny’s social security just name and address. Please help. Have any of you done backpay? Should I hire a lawyer I can’t really afford? Any advice on how I can fix this?[/quote]

Well, apparently, you have a functioning brain so use it!  You will have to contact IRS by email (because you will never get through byvohone) and explain situation.  Better still, send a letter with return receipt so you know that letter has been received.  Explain situation in concise language.  Tell them you need to know how to correct this situation and quickly.

Who knows how long it will take before you hear from them but it will be on record that you have written to them to correct this situation.  There will be a fine but you are not going to prison so calm down![/quote]
