[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]What about those nannies who will still ask to be paid off the books so as to avoid paying taxes, and keep their federal and state benefits?[/quote] If you paid them a living wage, what benefits would they need?[/quote] I do pay a living wage. I paid this particular legal nanny in California a salary of $18-$19/hour, plus a $40/week gas stipend. When I discussed the quarterly tax return with her, she became quite angry. How dare I file a tax return on her earnings; in twenty years of nanny work no employer had ever filed information on her earnings; this would adversely impact her husband's taxes and benefits; etc., etc. Naturally we had to part ways because she did not want me to pay employee taxes for her. Why do otherwise legal, good nannies, who are being paid well, want to keep everything under the table?[/quote]
