schedule H

[TAX4US]

OK What I have is a TP that withheld Fed/Fica/MT and state tax assumming this person was going to work the whole year. Turns out she did not work enough to reach the magical number requiring the w-2 to be filed. What would you do? I am thinking filing the w-2 showing the wages and the Fed withholding only and refunding the Fica and medicare and state. What do you think?

In this case, wages less than .... than.. what? Is a schedule h required?

I do believe...

In that case you are supposed to refund everything to the employee. Presumably nothing was actually remitted either to the feds or to the state?

W_2 and schedule H instructions says less than $1800.00. TP paid for home care and has no other business. Therefore we have nothing else to file. TP paid $1200.00 to help before she quit. Just wondering what I do with all the various withholdings since I have no other employment forms to file.

As I said...

Give them back!
