What is the name of your state? Pennsylvania
I was employed with a carpet business for about 9 months. I was under the impression that everything was good and straight with my taxes and whatnot. come the end of the year he tells me that i was being paid under the table and that if i reported the income that i would go to jail and be charged with tax fraud and tax evasion. I recently found out while waiting for my tax return that he 1099ed me. now i owe the irs 4 grand and he is now claiming that i was a sub contractor. i dont meet the criteria to be a subcontractor he is just trying to screw me what do i do?
