• Eliminate IRS risks associated with sole proprietors (1099) and incorporated workers. Before hiring a worker as a 1099 independent contractor, companies are advised to use a compliance test based on the famous "IRS 20-Point Questions." In those cases when the company is directing the activities of the worker, the IRS will view the worker as an employee and issue heavy fines for misclassification. Therefore, the company is well advised to enlist the services of an Employer of Record service to ensure that the worker is properly classified in order to meet IRS approval. The Employer of Record service will pay the worker as a traditional W-2 employee and verify that all taxes are properly deducted and paid.
