This is true; however, I don't see that - agencies are especially interested Posted: Feb 26th, 2020 - 5:59 pm In Reply to: IC vs employee labor regulations - KJ
I've compiled information to present to the IRS and DOL because I'm sick of it.
I've read here and there that if the IRS sees only one 1099 for someone, that's a red flag and they'll take notice. I'd deduce therefrom that it'd also be a red flag if it's the same person with the same source of the 1099s over a period of years.
I've been (mis-) classified as an IC for a very long time. I haven't heard a peep about it. In fact, I'd like to ask the IRS and/or DOL (federal and state) if they're the slightest bit curious.
At different government sites I saw all sorts of stuff about how serious they are about this...blah-blah. One state recently passed a law that signing an agreement gives weight to somone's being IC--except if person is misclassified, well, it's still illegal. That is one of the stupidest things I've ever seen. A first-year law student could tell you that a contract to engage in illegal practice is null and void.
Then again, these are government agencies. People employed there don't have reputations for being particularly industrious.
