Here is additional information...

 

Great! Thank you, we have the information for you. Since you live together under the same roof (excuse my redundancy), your wages will be excluded from taxation. You'll have to amend your tax return, leave it as is, just when you amend it, enter the wages under other income and enter it as a -(negative) amount so that it is reduced from the wages already included.

 

You'll use the following verbiage under the other income -(negative) amount  "wages excluded per IRS notice 2017-7", you do not have to file Form 843 for federal purposes, just use the above information. You might want to contact the third party to see if they can exempt you from taxation, so that you don't continue to receive a W-2. 

 

Hope this helps and if you need help with amending your tax return, please feel free to call us at 1-800-446-8848. You had me digging for the treasure LOL glad we got to the bottom of it.
