Given ATX is not supplying as much reference material (without extra cost) as it has in previous years I share this information. Tax Book http://www.thetaxbook.com/index.asp has been given good reports on this forum many times. Using that, I just finalized my order with "Gabriel" at 866-919-5277 ext. 153 . Currently a 20% discount is offered "E20B" on many products. Give Gabriel a call (if he can put up with me -- he is golden and happy to help). Just wanted to share. Good Season, Ed

The Tax Book lives on my desk... and I keep a couple of back years' versions, as well - for those late or non-filers. Answers those "what WERE the rules on this two years ago?" questions. The state book I only replace every three years or so; just not enough changes (that I see). Good CPE, too, at good prices.

I'm just going to be lazy and say check out Publication 926. Agree with the other Rita. Basically, Sch H serves as the 941 (or 943, as it were). Don't complete 941 or 943. Prepare W-2 and W-3, 940, and state unemployment if wages are above the limits. Wages paid to some individuals don't count. Agree, a nanny is not a subcontractor. http://www.irs.gov/publications/p926/ar02.html#en_US_2014_publink100086752

Marilyn, have her do the examples/homework on paper forms, preferably before prepping on any software, to see and feel the flow. As you say, once she understands the tax principles, the software is just another tool.
