The Nuts and Bolts of Paying Your Nanny in the time of Coronavirus

Details
Parent Category: Newsflashes
Category: Newsflash

On Sunday, April 5, Jay Schulze of HomeWork Solutions joined us for a webinar on the nuts and bolts of nanny pay during the coronavirus crisis, including CARES, FFRCA, retroactively paying on the books, and more. We also had a webinar on April 1st, 2020 and notes from that event are listed here and focus more on the nanny/employer relationship.

Please note that this content is for general informational purposes only and is not a substitute for legal or financial advice. Every case is different, the regulations are changing all the time, and the consequences of each choice are complex. You’ll need to contact your accountant, payroll company, lawyer, and small business resources to get answers specific to your situation.

 Also note: If you are not paying your nanny on the books, you and your nanny are missing out on tax credits (if you continue to pay your nanny), or unemployment for your nanny. Park Slope Parents recommends you retroactively pay your nanny on the books so that you can 1) be in compliance with the law and 2) take advantage of financial resources which will help you and your nanny through this difficult time. Since it can be tricky to get things set up, we advise that you reach out to a nanny payroll service (such as HomeWorkSolutions, though we have reviews of other payroll services on the PSP website).

A week of remote learning has come and gone, leaving a city full of exhausted parents and restless kids in its wake. Homeschooling is a daunting prospect at any time, and especially when you’ve got about 100,000 other things on your mind—from quarantine concerns to caring for sick loved ones to managing your own work-from-home schedule or coping with sudden unemployment.
