Paid Employer Taxes for Househould Employee

Schedule H calculated my year's tax liability for employer taxes for a household employee. Payroll company made payments throughout the year to closely match that amount following 941 forms. Where do I claim the amount of taxes actually paid? IRS rejected original filing claiming it as estimated tax payments made. Schedule H only calculates tax owed, and then transfers to Schedule 2, there is nowhere else to claim already paying that amount.

Quick Answer:

Household employment taxes calculated on Schedule H are typically paid either through increased income tax withholding from your own wages (reported on Form W-2) or by making estimated tax payments using Form 10
