+1 I live in NYC and very few nannies here are paid on the books, including the American ones. Our last nanny was a U.S. born citizen and insisted on being off the books, just like every other nanny we interviewed.

I did this all throughout undergrad. Most families preferred cash. It was easier and my take home pay was more.

There isn't really much of a write off for most people who employ nannies. There is a childcare tax credit, but you lose even that above a certain income level.

You would just say that she was visiting you. As if a guest fell and was injured at your house. No one is going to cross-examine you.
Depends on how big the claim is. If it was a big claim they would likely dig further.

Besides moral ones?
Little to none unless you're planning to run for office. Might be an issue if it turned up in a security clearance check for some jobs, but I doubt it.

Off the books completely? I know a weekend nanny who just convinced her weekend employers of 1.5 years to go off the books. Otherwise she was going to quit. Obviously this is a lot more money in her pocket.
What are the dangers of going off the books with a second job?
