Nannies - we THANK YOU on National Nanny Recognition Week!
A nanny share is when 2 families have one nanny care for both families' children at the same time. The families save money and the nanny usually earns a bit more. Win-Win. So what about the household payroll taxes?
Everyone loves it when someone else deals with the drudgery of housework. What you might not realize is that your cleaning lady may actually be your employee.
Mis-classification - treating an employee as if they were an independent contractor for tax purposes - is an IRS and US DOL enforcement priority. Learn why your nanny is your employee.
The so-called nanny taxes are complicated! HWS' short, informative video helps families understand the steps that are needed for household employment tax compliance. Our household payroll specialists are available for a free telephone consultation at 800.626.4829.
When caregivers and families speak of compensation, there is often confusion caused by ambiguous communication. Learn the difference between gross and net pay and why it is important!
A Net Wage is your take home pay. Many nannies and other household workers negotiate a net wage with their employer. The devil is in the details - learn what you need to consider.
Do you know the difference between payroll and income taxes? What are common paycheck deductions? What the employer pays and what the employee pays?
If you have better things to do with your time, outsource with confidence to HWS' nanny and household payroll services.
