Hi everyone!
There is a new payroll tax that I want to make you aware of. This tax will affect both nannies and parents.
Nannies – if you work in Washington state, you will be responsible for paying this new tax starting January 1, 2022… BUT you must take action by November 1, 2021.
Parents – while you are not responsible for paying this tax, you do need to collect and remit the tax to the Employment Security Department.
In this video, I interview Tom Breedlove – Senior Director of HomePay about the new Washington Cares Act. HomePay is the nation’s leading payroll company. They are amazing to work with and I recommend them to all of our members!
The Washington Cares Act payroll tax will provide employees with up to $36,500 in long term care benefits.
We cover what the Washington Cares Act is, what is does, how to navigate it, and how it affects employees (nannies) and employers (parents).
Parents – if you would like HomePay to handle paying your nanny and taking care of all of the forms, taxes, deadlines, etc. (including this new payroll tax), please click here.
