[quote=Anonymous]Complete and submit a W-4 form instead of a W-9. The W-9 is for independent contractors. It's possible they are confused, or they are trying to make you an independent contractor because it's easier and cheaper for them. Don't do it -- the law is pretty clear that household workers are employees, not ICs. There are significant downsides to the IC/employee who agrees to this (you pay 100% of the taxes yourself instead of some coming out of the employer's pocket; you don't get workers' comp; you may have trouble collecting unemployment, etc.).[/quote]
