I am getting a wee bit tired of running into all these location based so-called “freelance” positions. Have these people never ran into the IRS 20- question checklist?
Is this just a way to not pay benefits? How is this freelance? And how are they getting away with it?
My accountant-hubby has gone off to bed, so if you can offer any clarification, please let me know!
Here’s a post stating essentially the same thing from one of my favorite blogs.
I’m more or less aware of the IRS rules… but I’ve never had any luck convincing an employer… I haven’t tried often, so maybe I gave up too soon. Now I simply don’t even try for those jobs because I want to work at home.
