Single mother TP, worked all year as nanny. Yes, paid only cash. What form do I fill out for lack of W2? How should I counsel TP regarding possible follow-up from IRS for name or contact info for employer. This is my first time with this very common scenario. Just curious about the typical chain of events, if any from IRS.

Solved via own research. Thanks. #4852

First counsel her not to assume her employers are tax evaders, or to rely on a tax preparer with that attitude. It's just as likely that the employers will be counseled on filing Schedule H when they get around to doing their tax returns. The 4852 is a "turn in your employer to IRS" form, and it would have been in the best interest of the kids to settle this issue before she started work. For now, maybe you'll pick up a new client when the boss wants to do the right thing.

By "nanny," do you mean that this was a live-in arrangement, and she was not taking care of other children as well?

It's my black sheep niece. I do hers for free. No, she did not live with the parents of the child. Its 50/50 if they are intentily evaders. Yes, they simply maybe completely unaware of the rules. so my plan is to counsel her slowly, and throughly. But my question remains. Is it certain the parents of the child nannied, will get a letter from the IRS?

Has she asked her employer for a W-2?

The more I know the more I don’t know.
