[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Bump.  My nanny just applied for unemployment.  In reality we offered her to come back and she asked to double her rate, which was not sustainable for us.  If I accept the claim and do not dispute that she was discharged, will it cost me money?  We used a payroll service, but paid her less than $2000 this year before the disaster started, so I feel that I likely do have grounds to contest.  I just don’t have extra right now if it’s not something I am obligated to pay for.[/quote]

It depends.  If you paid taxes, paid unemployment insurance, have proof of what you paid before covid (and what the hourly rate was) and written proof of your conversation, denying it shouldn’t cost you anything.  If you didn’t keep all of it, it could cause an increase in your unemployment insurance going forward.[/quote]

Thank you.  We have all that except we didn’t write down the conversation.  But if I did not dispute and she did collect unemployment, would that increase our taxes?[/quote]
