HOME OWNER Do you employ a cook, cleaning woman or other domestic worker in your home for one or more days per week? If so, you are paying them more than fifty dollars per quarter in wages, and you should be withholding and paying Social Security contributions for them. Your failure to do this denies your employee his right to receive Social Security benefits for themselves and their dependents in later years.
