I'm thinking only fed tax not withheld. Fica is mandatory & that means an employer could be fined heavily for not collecting & depositing this. Plus, unless an independent contractor, an employee is not charged for employer side.

@Mini Horses is right. They withheld social security and Medicare taxes so they don't have IRS issue. They just didn't withhold the federal which gets us in trouble.

You could file at latest date, make a couple fed deposits before...even get a payment plan.

That happened to our youngest daughter when she moved to Virginia right out of high school. She had no idea about it until the IRS dunned her for the taxes.

You can make payments. You can call and get payment set up. They will send you a letter and monthly statements. Or you can let them take automatic payments from your account. They have all your information anyway. Just try not paying them and see how fast they shut you out of your bank account.

That is what DD2 had to do. It was waitress work/. The employer got aound paying any benefits etc. by listing all his staff as contractor help. Now she checks to make sure the employer is deducting.
