Jeeves has to step down for sexual harrassment: Going from W-2 to 1099
So my work gave everybody a form to sign to switch from W2 employees to 1099 contractors. Now obviously I know why they are doing it, how shady and probably not all that legal it is, yada yada. I just want to be informed when I decide what I'm going to do here.
If anyone is familiar with the changes:
- How difficult are my taxes going to be?
- They are going to pay me my current salary AFTER TAX, and told me I can "write off miles and meals and etc..." and it should leave me with no tax liability. I don't believe it. Contract will 1099 me for 2 months, so I'll exceed the $5000 in deductables from the EZ form. Is this somewhat realistic or as crazy and tax-fraudulent as it sounds?
- They'll pay health insurance. From the contract: "current health insurance benefits will be paid in full at the first of each month". I don't know if that means they'll continue to pay them or pay that money to me and I'm responsible for it now.
- What are the consequences? Clearly they want to do this to be able to fire people more easily. But it might be worthwhile for me to sign it and take one lump sum rather than go on shitty Florida unemployment.
All advice is appreciated. It's either sign it or don't and dare them to lay me off (not sure if they would or wouldn't).

Super bad for your personal taxes - you have to take out now for full measure of Social Security. Are they gonna pay you more to make up the difference? Otherwise, this is a decided pay cut.

This sounds fraudulent as hell. If they tell you when and where to work, you're an employee.
To expand on what TB said, if you're a 1099 employee, you have to pay a 15.3% self-employment tax - in addition to your regular income tax. The self-employment tax replaces the Social Security/Medicare taxes you and your employer each paid on on your wages.
Fuck Ronald Reagan and the whole Republican ethos.

Re: Jeeves has to step down for sexual harrassment: Going from W-2 to 1099
My wife had to go through this when we moved to CO in 2013. Full disclosure I use an accountant to file our taxes b/c I'm always paranoid about forgetting or missing something. It costs me $150-$250 but it's worth the peace of mind to me.
To answer your first question about taxes its not much more difficult when it comes to completing/filing...there is one or two additional forms, depending on if you itemize your deductions (which you will probably want to consider). There are broader issues that you will probably want to take into account, though. You pointed out the first one already...that this is basically shady AF.
You will have to make quarterly estimated payments to the IRS throughout the year since you no longer have your employer sending in the withholdings from your paycheck. You will also be responsible for paying what used to be the employer share of Social Security and Medicare...so instead of the 7.65% that comes out of your paycheck now you're on the hook for the full 15.3%...this is in addition to your regular income tax.
If I am understanding you correctly, the 1099 pay they will be giving you is equal to what your current take-home pay is? If so, that is a blatant ripoff. My wife's company pays here a higher hourly rate than she got as a W-2 employee since they are no longer paying their share of her FICA tax, benefits, etc. I doubt you can get your tax liability to zero but i guess it depends on what you can write off as expenses. We deduct home office expenses...the actual square footage of our home office space plus internet, cell phone costs, etc.
As far as the health insurance, I'm not sure how they're pulling that off. If they have their own group plan that you are currently a part of I don't see how they can keep that but still claim you are not a W-2 employee. Setting that aside, I would assume that you are responsible to pay whatever the total premium is and they will be reimbursing you.
Feel free to PM me if you want to get into more specifics.

Re: Jeeves has to step down for sexual harrassment: Going from W-2 to 1099
I imagine the ramifications of not signing will depend completely on what percentage of the workforce refuses and very little on how much they like you.

Re: Jeeves has to step down for sexual harrassment: Going from W-2 to 1099
If you pay the premium and then get reimbursed by someone you are contracting with as a 1099er, isn't the reimbursement treated as income? (We've dealt with issues like that at my firm.)

Re: Jeeves has to step down for sexual harrassment: Going from W-2 to 1099
It most definitely is...although depending on the situation, the cost of the premium could be deducted so in theory it could be a wash.Steve of phpBB wrote: ↑Fri Feb 02, 2018 12:12 pmIf you pay the premium and then get reimbursed by someone you are contracting with as a 1099er, isn't the reimbursement treated as income?

Re: Jeeves has to step down for sexual harrassment: Going from W-2 to 1099
Write off as much as possible. Anything that could even be considered for work use. Self-employment tax bends you over.
Re: Jeeves has to step down for sexual harrassment: Going from W-2 to 1099
If they are just giving you money and telling you to find your own plan, you will undoubtedly pay more and get less. Especially if you care a lot about keeping your same doctor(s). I ran into this when my Cobra ran out from my former job and I had to go find my own insurance. It sucks donkey balls.From the contract: "current health insurance benefits will be paid in full at the first of each month". I don't know if that means they'll continue to pay them or pay that money to me and I'm responsible for it now.

SC, just curious, when was that? Was that after the exchanges kicked in? It seems to me that the differences between employer-furnished insurance and insurance on the individual market are not that significant anymore. But that could just reflect my geographical area.

Re: Jeeves has to step down for sexual harrassment: Going from W-2 to 1099
That's my question, basically - those that do work at home, how much are you able to write off? If it gets the taxes minimized, I'd consider it.
My main reason for not signing it wouldn't be all this (though it would obviously weigh into the decision), but to not enable employers to continue to do shady shit like this. Even though in our case it was brought on by financial issues, not somebody jerking off to Ayn Rand posters. If we closed up within the next few months I wouldn't be surprised.

Re: Jeeves has to step down for sexual harrassment: Going from W-2 to 1099
My Cobra ran out in November, 2017. So, I went with the exchange (Covered California) for the month of December last year, and it was two hundred dollars more through the exchange for the month, for slightly lesser coverage (Healthnet's "Silver" package). But, then I had to go into open enrollment for 2018 and it got a lot worse. Because our doctors' medical clinic opted out of Covered California. And, my wife was insistent that she keep her same doctors. And they only accept company plans, with one exception. Which means that we have to contract directly through their sole insurance option (Healthnet). So now we pay one hundred per month more per month than we did on Cobra, for their "Bronze" package, which is decidedly worse - really just major medical - meaning I pay everything out of pocket, until we get up to substantial deductibles. (By choosing the lesser package, I pay lower monthly premiums and am effectively making a bet that we will stay relatively healthy - but in any case it will be a lot more than I used to pay).Steve of phpBB wrote: ↑Fri Feb 02, 2018 12:54 pmSC, just curious, when was that?

Sounds like you should take advantage of your newfound freedom to set your own work schedule and start interviewing.

Here are the bills/costs we deduct:
cell phone
internet
transportation (car mileage, etc)
utilities - electric, gas, etc. - as a % based on the home office calculation below
home office space - this works as a % of your total living space square footage. My house is 2600 sq ft; my wife's office 130 sq ft so we can deduct 5% of our housing cost.
Basically, you can deduct anything you can tie to a work-related expense. Should you deduct your groceries for lunch you make at home? Probably not. But if you're traveling for work and eat dinner at the hotel then that is probably a different story.*

Re: Jeeves has to step down for sexual harrassment: Going from W-2 to 1099
You can write off whatever you want. Just a matter of your audit risk appetite. Just look up "business expense" in Google. From my experience it's mostly all deductible, just that some of the documentation requirements are onerous. And you only get 50% of food and liquor. Practically the trick is to write off as much of your personal expenses (phone internet etc) as you can so you come out ahead.
Re: Jeeves has to step down for sexual harrassment: Going from W-2 to 1099
Just spoke with HDO. I'm definitely not signing this at this rate but if they want to pay me more, I'll think about it.
The way I work now they can argue that I am an independent contractor and it might fly. The other guys, not a chance but I don't know if that all applies if you sign it away.

Don't try to write off a portion of your rent/mortgage for a home office. I've been told that is a huge red flag for an audit.

Re: Jeeves has to step down for sexual harrassment: Going from W-2 to 1099
I've done it in the past when I was a full-time at home worker but we actually had the dedicated office space. And because the condo itself was so small, that ended up being like a 15% write-off of all utility costs.

Every accountant I've talked too has been nervous about this. Basically I've been told not to unless you have a dedicated room (i.e., with a door) that can be shown to only be used for work purposes.

If I'm 1099-ed, I can't collect unemployment if/when they close up shop, but here's what I'd be giving up:
That will really help people to get back on their feet.In Florida, your weekly benefit amount is calculated by dividing your total earnings for the highest paid quarter of the base period by 26, up to a current maximum of $275 per week. You can receive benefits for anywhere between 12 to 23 weeks, depending on Florida's current unemployment rate.

Re: Jeeves has to step down for sexual harrassment: Going from W-2 to 1099
And even then you can pretty much only (successfully) write it off if you're a contractor, self-employed or similar.
I have a dedicated office space in my house because I work remotely, but I can't write off anything despite having a "home office".
Of course in GPJ's case, he should be able to (if he chooses to take the offer).

If you are interested, here a link to Dept of Labor's criteria for determining if you can be classified as a contractor:
https://www.dol.gov/whd/regs/compliance/whdfs13.htm
Unless they are changing the nature of your job responsibilities, I doubt they can correctly classify you as a contractor. If you do go that route and sign, you are not waiving your rights to bring a claim of misclassification, even if the agreement says you waive that right. You should also look into forming an LLC or Corp, and get paid through that entity. You will almost always have tax savings through an LLC or Corp., and it's a very minimal expense.
