Nanny Tax

You have finally made the decision to hire a nanny. There are a lot of steps involved in this process. After careful consideration you have hired the perfect nanny for your family. One would think the hard part is over.

The process of hiring a nanny is over however the issues of salary and tax deductions and nanny taxeshave just begun.

The one thing many families don’t plan for is the process of paying nanny tax. For some reason this is over looked and some people only realize this when it’s too late. To pay tax on nannies hired in Toronto, Ontario and the GTA by law in Canada requires you to formally register a business. In this business you are the employer and your nanny is your employee. 

• Register a business
• Pay all deductions
• Employment Insurance Canada
• Pension Plan
• Income tax
• WSIB - “The WSIB provides coverage for domestic workers who are employed more than 24 hours a week by one employer. If the worker's hours vary--more than 24 hours most weeks, but 24 hours or less other weeks--the worker is continuously covered.” (www.wsib.on.ca)
• Submit a monthly remittance
• Submit a yearly T4
