WORKERS IN YOUR HOME AND SOCIAL SECURITY<\/div>\n

\n
Do you plan to pay a cleaning person, cook, gardener, babysitter, or other household worker at least $2,300 in 2021? This amount includes any cash you pay for your household employee\u2019s transportation, meals, and housing. If you will pay at least $2,300 to one person, you have some additional financial responsibilities.<\/div>\n
When you pay at least $2,300 in wages to a household worker, you must do all of the following:<\/div>\n
\u2022 Deduct Social Security and Medicare taxes from those wages.<\/div>\n
\u2022 Pay these taxes to the Internal Revenue Service.<\/div>\n
\u2022 Report the wages to Social Security.<\/div>\n
For every $2,300 in wages, most household employees earn credits toward Social Security benefits and Medicare coverage. Generally, people need 10 years of work to qualify for:<\/div>\n
\u2022 Retirement benefits (as early as age 62).<\/div>\n
\u2022 Disability benefits for the worker and the worker\u2019s dependents.<\/div>\n
\u2022 Survivors benefits for the worker\u2019s family.<\/div>\n
\u2022 Medicare benefits.<\/div>\n
You can learn more about reporting household worker income by reading Household Workers at www.ssa.gov\/pubs\/EN-05-10021.pdf<\/a>.<\/div>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
