The only time you can use form 8919 without also filing a form SS-8 is if you have a single employer who pays you on a W-2 and pays the bonus on a 1099. That would be code H on form 8919. That's not the case here, you have two payors. To claim that you are an improperly classified employee of the franchisor, you would have to file form SS-8 to make that determination, and based on the facts, you clearly aren't an employee of the franchisor.
