[quote=Anonymous][quote]Many nannies don't owe any back taxes. The employer's are responsible for all the payroll taxes they didn't collect so the nanny is left with income tax. If she is unemployed any chunk of the year, she probably doesn't have enough income to owe any, or much. I agree that it is better to be on payroll, just pointing out that the risks to the nanny are less than most families realize.[/quote] I disagree that there are not risks to the nanny. A single nanny with a large gap in her employment may not owe back taxes but unless she is making around minimum wage or working less than 40 hours with a low salary she most likely owes something in federal and state income tax. If she is married and filing jointly so her husband can report the deduction but not reporting her income she could end up owing more than employer does for SSN/Med. If she is not reporting her income so that she can qualify for state or federal assistance programs then this is fraud. [/quote]
