The Roberts family hired a live-in au pair to help care for their children while the parents work. One of their co-workers mentioned something about a “Nanny Tax,” and the Roberts aren’t sure if it applies to their situation.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

In the IRS\u2019s eyes, nannies fall into the category of household employees. With a few exceptions, if your nanny is considered an employee because you control when and how they work, you\u2019ll need to withhold and pay Social Security and Medicare taxes if they earn at least $2,800 in 2025, ($2,700 in 2024). You may also need to pay federal unemployment tax if they earn more than $1,000 in a calendar quarter. This is on top of any state employment taxes you may be required to withhold or pay.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

And while you\u2019re not required to withhold federal income tax, your employee may ask you to. You would need to get a Form W-4 from them. If you withhold any taxes from your employees, you\u2019ll need to provide a W-2 each January. Incorrectly classifying your nanny as an independent contractor to avoid paying payroll taxes can have harsh consequences.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Client Profile is based on a hypothetical situation. The solutions discussed may or may not be appropriate for you.<\/sub><\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n
