Domestic Employees

[BillV]

Homebound Taxpayer hires 5 employee to take care of her and her husband 24/7. She is under Hospice care. She obtained a FIN and hired employees in Jul, Aug, and Sep. She died end of Sep. POA (an atty) put her husband in a nursing home end of Oct.

SS and MC taxes were paid on Form 941 as well as SUTA. No withholding from employee check was required.

Employees were retained by POA in Oct until husband went to NH.

Can MFJ return be filed for 2010 assuming the husband lives who is NCM with return to be signed by POA for husband as surviving spouse? No Sch H necessary, but instead a Sch C?

Fourth quarter PR reports to be signed by POA and must use POA's FIN?

An EIN is needed of course for issuing the W2 forms end of year.
And therefore all taxes should be reported with reference to schedule H with 1040 form, joint filing of course.
No way can you even think about using a schedule c.

Need to contact IRS to see what to be done about fact that 941's already filed.
