As the parent of the child I receive childcare assistance from the department of health and human services. I have a caregiver that provides childcare in my home. I have to issue a w2. I did not withhold any taxes. Do I have to pay Medicare and ssi taxes as an employer out of my pocket? Does my caregiver have to pay these as well? Are there any other taxes that o have to pay? I’m low income and on assistance.
