How does a household employee affect my tax return?
Menu Path: Misc > Other Taxes > Household Employment (Schedule H)
If you have a housekeeper, nanny, caretaker, health aide, private nurse, or other household employee that is not employed through an agency, you will need to file Schedule H with your tax return. Workers you get through an agency are not your employees, so you don't need to report them on your tax return. Self-employed workers are also not your employees and don't need to be reported on your tax return.
If you have a household employee, go to the Household Employment Taxes (Schedule H) screen in the Miscellaneous Topics section of our software and enter your household employee's information in that section.
