Hi KPL1970,
Thank you for this question. In both cases mentiion, It does appear from your question that both are being paid as self employed workers. Whenever the income exceeds $600, the IRS requires that a tax return be completed. It is possible that Social security and medicare taxes may be due on the amounts received as both are considered self-employed.
