My husband went to my daughter’s former employer (a little ice cream shop where she worked over the summer) to get her W2. To our surprise, they gave him a 1099 – they never took out taxes! What the heck?! This is totally illegal by the way, and now my 16-year-old is ready to file taxes for the first time and could OWE because she is considered self-employed — without her knowledge! You better believe that within minutes I called my provider law firm. Two different attorneys called me back – one was an employment attorney, the other a tax attorney. Both were very helpful, very friendly, and gave me the advice that was not only perfect for my situation but thankfully exactly what we wanted to hear. Shame on the ice cream shop for being shady and dishonest, but so glad I had my law firm to give me guidance and peace of mind.
