I'm thinking of hiring a housekeeper. Living in a small apartment, I only need help aprox. 8 hours a week. Four hours twice a week. I plan on paying $10 an hour after first 4 weeks, which of course will be $80 a week.
My question is, at this amount, do I report this for tax reasons? Most of those I have considered, prefer just having the cash, opposed to a formal paycheck with taxes taken out.
I want to do what's right, and know if a person's income is under a certain amount, it doesn't have to be taxed, but I can't find info as to what this amount is. In case it varies from state to state, I am in NJ.
Thanks for any help.
