This is archived information that pertains only to the 2001 Tax Year. If you
are looking for information for the current tax year, go to the Tax Prep Help Area.

The information in this publication applies to you only if you have a household employee. If you have a household employee in 2002, you may need to pay state and federal employment taxes for 2002. You generally must add your federal employment taxes to the income tax that you will report on your 2002 federal income tax return.

This publication will help you decide whether you have a household employee and, if you do, whether you need to pay federal employment taxes. It explains how to figure, pay, and report social security tax, Medicare tax, federal unemployment tax, and federal income tax withholding for your household employee. It also explains what records you need to keep.

This publication also tells you where to find out whether you need to pay state unemployment tax for your household employee.
