IHSS income is excluded from federal and state income taxation, but subject to FICA taxes.
Please see this document for more information:
As indicated the W2 in this situation is not required to be reported. However, if you fit the criteria below for excess FICA, then you can enter $1 in the wage box so that the W2 will be accepted for e-file.
If you do have two different employers, then the employers do not have access to the information about each other in reference to your income. For this reason they would not pay too much FICA on your wages. In this case, any excess because you have earned more than $142,800 in wages when combined, the IRS will refund any excess social security tax because each employer would have paid it all to them.
