回复 198楼jiehuan的帖子 付给祖父母看孩子费用合法的，只是ｗ２雇主需不需要交税的问题。单亲家庭需要交税，双亲家庭不需要交税。 “Wages not counted. Do not count wages you pay to any of the following individuals as Social Security and Medicare wages, even if these wages are $1,800 or more during the year. Your spouse Your child who is under the age of 21 Your parent. Exception — Count these wages if both the following conditions apply: A) Your parent cares for your child who is either under the age of 18, or has a physical or mental condition that requires the personal care of an adult for at least four continuous weeks in a calendar quarter. B) You marital status is one of the following: You are divorced and have not remarried; you are a widow or widower; or you are living with a spouse whose physical or mental condition prevents him or her from caring for your child for at least four continuous weeks in a calendar quarter. An employee who is under the age of 18 at any time during the year. Exception: Count these wages if providing household services is the employee’s principal occupation. If the employee is a student, providing household services is not considered to be his or her principal occupation.” Note: In the third bullet point above, “count these wages” means do treat those wages as being subject to all payroll taxes. In other words, you are responsible for paying Social Security and Medicare wages to your parents only if you are a single parent, or have a disabled spouse. When you only have one income and the extra 7.65% cost is a hardship, you have to pay the extra taxes. Who writes these laws?
这个的确是IRS 的明文规定，雇佣父母带孩子发工资攒积点只在你自己是单亲带娃的情况下才是符合规定。不被查到是凭运气，被查到是会被取消ss benefit的资格的。

为了增加工作机会。和报税一样，如果方法简单了，TurboTax这样的公司就会裁员，很多报税财务就要失业。以前讨论过，结果就是继续复杂下去。
感谢楼主分享
那Obama care呢？
请问一下工资公证是申请obama care的时候就需要提供，还是第二年报税返还credit的时候才需要？谢谢！
