Applying for Work in the Obama Administration
The issue of household employees and payment of the nanny taxes is once again front and center in the vetting of potential Obama administration staffers. I imagine that more than a few applicants are going to discover that non-payment of the "nanny taxes" can be a career limiting decision in Washington DC!
The published 63 question Employment Questionnaire includes the following:
(53) Do you presently have or have you in the past had occasional (to be sure, a monthly housekeeper is covered) or regular domestic help? (e.g. a housekeeper, babysitter, nanny or gardener) If yes, please indicate the name and years of service for each individual and also provide a brief description of the services rendered.
(54) Were all individuals listed in Question 49 [sic] legally eligible to work in the United States at the time you employed them?
(55) Have you paid all taxes and social security obligations applicable to the employment of the individuals listed in Question 49 [sic]? Do you use an outside service to pay such individuals? Have all payments related to the employment of these individuals been made in a timely manner? If not, please identify the length and reason for the delay(s).
(56) Have you complied with all federal, state and local laws and regulations related to the employment of the individuals listed in Question 49 [sic]?

LOL. MSNBC went over this one night on Olberman. Zoey was brought up. I think it was left something like. "Have you paid YOUR nanny legally today?" with Keith giving his crazy/goofy look at the end of the segment.
