According to the IRS, my J-1 visa holding Au Pair's wages are taxable for federal income tax, but those wages are not subject to Social Security and Medicare witholding. But when I enter her taxable wages as $X amount and then her Social Security wages as "Zero" into the Household Employee section of TurboTax, it keeps coming up on review as an error and won't let me file electronically. I'm not keen on spending an extra $1000+ just to make the program happy so I can file online. Help!
