Question: do you have to file taxes if you are a nanny?
Answer: Nanny taxes are Social Security and Medicare (FICA) taxes, and you're legally obligated to withhold them from your employee's earnings if you pay them $2,200 or more in calendar year 2020. ... The IRS will expect you to pay the entire 15.4% if you neglect to withhold FICA taxes from your employee's wages.
