Who needs this?
If you pay a nanny or housekeeper more than $1500 ($1000 in some states) in any one quarter of 2006, you are a domestic employer and your nanny is your domestic employee. This means you need to pay taxes, and you may want to withhold their taxes from their paycheck as well.

The actual amounts to pay and withhold vary with the exact hours worked as well as by state, making it complicated to figure out every pay period. But we have the perfect solution: our online Nanny Tax Calculator!

How it works
Step 1 - The employer signs up by entering their contact information. They also enter their credit card on a secure web page to pay the annual fee. They receive an employer ID which they give to their nanny.

Step 2 - The nanny signs up by entering their personal information and their employer's ID.

Step 3 - The nanny enters her hours in our online calendar. This can be done daily or several days can be done at once. At the end of the week, she declares her hours complete and clicks a button to submit them. They cannot be edited further. She can then view and print the amount of her paycheck and all applicable taxes. She can either give the printout to her employer or:

Step 4 - The employer reviews the hours submitted and writes a check based on the paystub information provided.

Step 5 - At any point, the employer can review how much has been paid to each employee each quarter and each year, as well as how much is owed in state and federal taxes.

Disclaimer
While we have made every effort to provide accurate calculations (and haven't found any problems yet!), every employer is ultimately responsible for any errors in tax reporting. This calculator is designed to make calculating each weekly paycheck as fast and accurate as possible, but checking our quarterly total calculations against your state's rates is always a good idea. If you notice ANY deviation, contact us immediately.
