My grandma worked off the books her whole life. Now that she’s on SSI turns out that was a big mistake.

Get on the books. If your employer is ever exposed you'll both owe a lot of taxes. Plus you are not setting yourself up for social security or unemployment.

So sorry OP.
You can always talk to your employer about this - - but if she will not budge, then you have no other option than to give your notice + find a family who is willing to pay you in ca$h.
You mentioned not having any PTO.
Did you & your employer somehow argue about that and that is when she decided to pay you on the books.......????

You are ridiculous, you don't even know where she lives. E.g $20/hour for a nanny in Alaska would be a fortune!
If that’s a fortune to anyone they should be using daycare. They don’t have to hire a nanny.
Try rural Midwest. $250-300 for full-time with 2-4 kids...
Home daycare.

Apparently, you know nothing about Alaska! Most food is flown in . It is a very high COL State. $20/hr is babysitting wage anywhere.

NP. Keep in mind that now MB is also paying taxes on top what she is paying you now.

She should of been paying on the books from the very beginning. Plus, it’s to your benefit to be paid legally. You will get your social security paid into and unemployment,

Understand that you and your employers are breaking the law in not paying legally (on the books) and you’re basically cheating out all the rest of us employers and employees who pay our taxes.
Grow up and do the right thing.

My MB has paid me in cash weekly for the past month but told me today she is increasing my wage by $2 and moving to on the books pay. Overal this could cut my take home pay by $150/month and I told her I need to be making $2300/minimum per month. I’d only be making $2150 and she’s paying me $20/hr. We are NOT in the DC area but I’m pissed. I’ve been paid in cash and it’s been so nice and convenient.
I called in sick for a day and didn’t have any PTO because she hasn’t been paying me on the books and as a result she wants to now set up with a payroll. I honestly don’t know if I can keep this job or if I need to move to a job that does pay in cash.
