Last updated October 18, 2026. Document version 2026-10-18.
Key Takeaways & Summary
- Direct household hiring: You are hiring the independent caregiver directly; assistedhelp.com is not an employer, staffing agency, or home care registry.
- Household employer responsibilities: Depending on total annual wages paid, you may have state and federal household employer tax obligations under IRS Publication 926.
- No payroll tax withholding: assistedhelp.com processes payments on your behalf but does not withhold state/federal payroll taxes or provide workers’ compensation insurance.
- Verify independent insurance: Confirm whether your homeowner or renter policy covers domestic workers or if specialized workers’ compensation is required in your state.
- Point-in-time checks: Background badges reflect historical Checkr reports and state registry submissions; ongoing supervision remains the family’s responsibility.
You are hiring the caregiver
If you send a quote, book a shift, or open a visit log, you are hiring the caregiver yourself. assistedhelp.com introduces you and provides the software. assistedhelp.com does not employ the caregiver, does not supervise the visit, and does not assign clinical duties.
You may be a household employer under your state’s rules. assistedhelp.com does not withhold income taxes, Social Security, or Medicare, and does not provide workers’ compensation. Check the workers’ compensation rules in your state before the shift. IRS Publication 926 is a starting point for household-employer taxes. It is not advice for your situation.
Background checks and license reviews are point-in-time. A Checkr badge means a Checkr report is on file. A staff review is not a Checkr report. Neither one decides whether a benefit program will pay.
Employer Responsibilities & Regulatory Guidance
Families engaging independent in-home caregivers should familiarize themselves with applicable federal and state labor standards. Official resources include the IRS Household Employer’s Tax Guide (Pub 926) and the U.S. Department of Labor Direct Care Worker Rules.
These publications provide guidance regarding wage thresholds, overtime rules, and recordkeeping. assistedhelp.com provides direct introduction and shift software to support your family’s search while leaving supervisory and employment decisions under your control.
