A 59 year old domestic worker disabled by arthritis learned she was ineligible for Social Security until her employers paid back taxes. The case highlights that many household employers may owe 4.4 percent in taxes plus 6 percent interest and up to 25 percent penalties. Federal law requires housewives to contribute if a domestic worker earns over $50 in a calendar quarter. The Census Bureau estimates 2.4 million domestics employed in January, with unknown compliance rates.
