DCP Says Employer Is Asking For W-10 From Me ???

[DaisyMamma]

I found this very suspicious. DCP says she is filling out tax forms at work and asked me to fill out a w10.
I have no problem filling it out, however, it sounds like BS to me. What does her employer need it for?

? A w10 should be filled out at the end of the year and given to the parent as far as I understand... Not sure why an employer would need it, but it wouldn't be correct if you filled it out now as the year hasn't ended, right?

I was never asked to fill out anything I just give parents my Tax ID number

this is open enrollment time at work. health ins is only part of it. If they have a cafeteria plan they can pay for childcare with pre tax dollars. they would need your name address and tax id number. That s all that is on a W10

a receipt is not on the form you add that.

You will need to sign forms from them so they can receive their money back.

THIS. I have a family on a flexible spending plan at work (if you're not familiar with what that is -- http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Flexible_spending_account ). Their employer needs your name, address, and Tax ID number.

Also, look at the actual W-10 here: http://www.irs.gov/uac/Form-W-10,-De...-Certification . It's nothing more than a way to provide your tax id #. Don't sweat giving it to them.

Yeah ^^, and some companies offer packages toward daycare expenses if it's to am actual provider, not grandparents or something.
