Thank you for that explanation @macuser_22 . Things are beginning to look more clear. The only agreement we had was for her to watch my kids while my wife and I worked. There was no discussion of withholding tax.
Tax season came, and I wanted to claim the amount I paid, naturally. I claimed the amount through Turbo Tax, used her SSN with her permission. She needs to file her taxes and asked me for a W2. How do I tell her to proceed? Is there anything I need to do?
Thanks for your help.
