If an employer never paid any of the deductions for all it's employees and then says 1099 yourself at the end

Question

year but your pay stubs say all the amounts were deducted does that mean I can't collect unemployment nothing went into social security or state or federal , can I now get fired more easily and do I owe all this money myself?

Answer 1

If you have your paycheck stubs, then you need to call the IRS and request a W2 complaint and a substitute W2 form, they will advise you how to file your returns
Make sure to explain what your employer is trying to pull, If he is doing this with all of the employees they also need to call

He is going to be in big trouble with the IRS if he withheld the taxes from the employees but did not report or pay them into the IRS.

Answer 2

Report the employer ....he can be in big trouble. Was the money taken out or did it just say that on your stub? With a 1099 you are responsible for paying the taxes on the money you made. If the money came out of your check each week he must report.

please look into this. He sent the irs a 1099 meaning you must report that income and pay taxes on it.

If he is your employer he has to take out proper taxes and match your s.s deductions too. let the irs know that you work for him as an employee.

Go to the irs.gov they will explain on their web site about W2- and 1099misc.

A1099 misc.is usually given to independ contractors.
