I know you know, but Lawyers and/or Accountants are the people for this question.
If any of us tell you wrong stuff it’s still on you for believing a bunch of jerks on the Internet. If lawyers tell you wrong it’s on them (at least up to a point). In my experience, if you do do something wrong, the gov employees are going to be lenient as long as you have a compliant attitude and you correct it. Like they don’t throw you in jail for not understanding the rules, they throw you in jail for establishing a pattern of acting in bad faith over time. I would *assume* a 1099 worker above prevailing wage is just as ok as an employee above prevailing wage, but you should absolutely not believe anything I say. -Adam From: AF <af-boun...@af.afmug.com> On Behalf Of Steve Jones Sent: Wednesday, October 11, 2023 9:41 PM To: AnimalFarm Microwave Users Group <af@af.afmug.com> Subject: Re: [AFMUG] prevailing wage partner is not technically and employee, but the partnership is not formal, so hes technically a 1099 contractor. he definitely makes over prevailing wage though. I just dont knw what documentation i need to show it. Or if i have to payroll him rather than 1099, he meets the IRS 1099 worksheet requirements On Wed, Oct 11, 2023 at 8:34 PM Mike Hammett <af...@ics-il.net <mailto:af...@ics-il.net> > wrote: I don't think it matters how many layers are between the person working and the government body, the worker still has to meet those wage thresholds. ----- Mike Hammett <http://www.ics-il.com/> Intelligent Computing Solutions <https://www.facebook.com/ICSIL> <https://plus.google.com/+IntelligentComputingSolutionsDeKalb> <https://www.linkedin.com/company/intelligent-computing-solutions> <https://twitter.com/ICSIL> <http://www.midwest-ix.com/> Midwest Internet Exchange <https://www.facebook.com/mdwestix> <https://www.linkedin.com/company/midwest-internet-exchange> <https://twitter.com/mdwestix> <http://www.thebrotherswisp.com/> The Brothers WISP <https://www.facebook.com/thebrotherswisp> <https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCXSdfxQv7SpoRQYNyLwntZg> _____ From: "Steve Jones" < <mailto:thatoneguyst...@gmail.com> thatoneguyst...@gmail.com> To: "AnimalFarm Microwave Users Group" < <mailto:af@af.afmug.com> af@af.afmug.com> Sent: Wednesday, October 11, 2023 6:09:15 PM Subject: Re: [AFMUG] prevailing wage My part er is informal. I have his 1099, he gets 50 percent after expenses, one of those expenses is operator pay. On PW jobs am I allowed to have 1099, or would I have to put him on payroll? I don't have any actual payroll right now. Last year I ended up having my accountant stop submitting because other than my son I didn't have any and this year I still didn't have enout to reach back out. I don't know anything about this stuff On Wed, Oct 11, 2023, 4:14 PM < <mailto:coordina...@town.warwick.ma.us> coordina...@town.warwick.ma.us> wrote: Prevailing wage is the state equivalent of federal Davis Bacon. Typically, your state's Dept of Labor maintains the schedules. You have to get the rates and make sure the workers get paid the rate and then retain the documentation in case of claim or objection. Part of my town administrator job is running our town owned wisp. the only workaround is hiring a sole proprietor or using your own laborforce.
