Episode 189 - How to Challenge Worker Misclassification
This episode is a discussion of how workers can challenge their misclassification as independent contractors through the IRS SS-8 process.
I discuss best practices for how practitioners can identify, address, and remedy misclassification on behalf of clients. I discuss the IRS procedures, including the accurate reporting of misclassification income as wages on tax returns, that individuals should know.
Here are some important resources on worker misclassification:
Philadelphia Legal Assistance page on misclassification
Center for Urban Pedagogy-designed poster that I worked on regarding misclassification
U.S. Department of Labor page on misclassification
Presentation on misclassification that I did with attorney Rebecca Stavish
IRS instructions on Form SS-8
My most recent Procedurally Taxing blog post on 26 U.S.C. 7434 (discussed in episode)
