Household Employment Sched H - tech issue

All,

Have a client that paid a nanny over $5000 in 2022 and filed a 1099-NEC accordingly using their SSN

When completing Sched H, the form is requiring a. Employer ID number which the client doesn't have.

Any ideas on how to proceed?

TIA

It probably would take few minutes to get an EIN

Level 15

filed a 1099-NEC

Shouldn't that have been a W-2....which would have had the requisite ID numbers ?

A. It probably should have been a W-2.

B. Schedule H is for Household Employers to report and pay taxes on the wages paid to their household employees

C. Schedule H requires an EIN. Can't use SSN.

Disengage?

Or have the client apply for an EIN, amend the 1099 to $0 and issue a W-2.

See Pub 926:
