PP, please read my post above about our experience in southern California.   We always hire legal nannies, and pay the required taxes for them.

What surprises me, is how many legal nannies I have interviewed (and hired in one case) who want to be paid off the books because they do not want to pay taxes, or because it will affect whatever state or federal benefits they are currently receiving.  As I said, I had to part ways with one legal nanny in southern California because she did not want to be reported as our employee.

Actually, California has a pervasive underground economy in general of merchants and service providers who do not want to report transactions in order to avoid the tax consequences.  That State has a broken tax system, but then it almost singlehandedly processes and handles illegal immigration/immigrants into the United States without much help from the federal Government.[/quote]
