Compliance Ledger — what taxes apply to your situation
Compliance Ledger is a decision-support tool for freelancers,
independent contractors, and household employers — people who pay a
nanny, caregiver, or other household worker. Pick a role and a
state, and it shows the taxes that apply, the forms involved, and
the public source each number came from.
Do I owe nanny tax?
If you paid a household worker like a nanny or caregiver more than
$3,000 in a calendar year (2026 IRS threshold), you likely owe
household employment tax — commonly called "nanny tax" — reported
on Schedule H. Compliance Ledger walks through your specific state
and situation to confirm what applies and which forms you need.
How it works
Every number in the app links back to the statute, IRS publication,
or state department of revenue page it came from. A weekly
automated check re-verifies each cited source. This tool is
decision support, not filing software and not legal or tax advice
from a licensed preparer.
