New Test helps AFC owners prevent issues with Wage and Labor

Some adult foster care home owners pay staff as an independent contractor to avoid W2s and payroll taxes. On January 9, 2024, the U.S. Department of Labor (“DOL”) released the final details of their Independent Contractor test. This test can help prevent issues with Wage and Labor at your AFC home.

Audits from Wage and Labor are costly and extremely time-consuming, taking away from resident care and the other tasks to run the home. If you do not issue a W2 at the end of the year to your employees, use the new independent contractor test to ensure employees are paid correctly. This will save you from the headache of a potential audit nightmare. The new rule is set to take effect on March 11, 2024.
