I'm not sure, honestly. I guess using the same Employer ID would probably catch the attention of the IRS, but apparently that happens a lot with your company.

Google's no help. If you get desparate, I probably know someone I can ask or direct to your LJ.

"Faded like the lilac, he thought."

Yeah, it's a problem, Steph. 'Cause as I understand it, there are pretty strict rules about how a person gets classified as an employee or as a contractor (and if you're not getting a 1099, you're not even talking contractor here). Some of which include, does the employer set your tasks and control your hours.

Part of the problem is going to be, the government is owed not only your taxes on it, but your employer's side taxes (companies match your social security and medicare taxes that get withheld), which it seems clear they're trying not to pay. If you were self-employed entirely, you'd be making up that portion in your own taxes. For us, as a company, we pay those payroll taxes as well as, you know, not getting the employee portion in our salary income.

Steph, I think that bonus income is supposed to be reported on a W-2 if you're an employee and if you're not than on a 1099.

Hey, while I have Steph, do you agree with my father that there is no way to get one's children adequately schooled in the Cincinnati public school system? He insists it's private/parochial, suburbs, or death.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

You could just call the IRS and ask them what to do. This would probably get your employer in trouble, but I think that's inevitable.

But can I report self-employment income from the same employer for whom I'm a full-time salaried employee? That doesn't seem possible. Don't you have to be one or the other, in terms of who pays you?

In addition to my regular job at a university I get paid small amounts as a consultant to various people's grants. If the consulting money comes from a grant at another university, it's considered self-employment income. If to comes from a grant at my own university, even at a different campus of my university, it's considered a supplement to my normal income, and the university includes it in my W2. So to me it sounds a little strange that you company is handling it this way.

What have you done with the real Scola?
