Who is my employer?Rating: (votes: 0) thank you in advance. If the clients pay you directly, how are your taxes handled? Does the agency not issue you a paycheck or directly deposit your pay?The agency is your employer, for resume purposes. But what you say about your pay coming directly from the clients is concerning if no taxes are being withheld and you are not aware of your tax obligations and how to prepare for/handle them.

My patients pay me directly by check every last day of my work. the agency is not involved regarding the payments. the agency just find clients for their employee & the clients pay the aide directly & also the agency.About the taxes I'm not really sure how it works i think the agency handle it for their employee when they received their payment from the client.

I think you're in a pickle, dear. Did you fill out W4s for the agency? Did the agency handle your wages at all? Did you get W2s for income tax filing, or Form 1099? Your agency would not have deducted tax and Social Security withholding for you from fees their clients pay to them.
Comment:
If the agency were handling any of your deductions, they would be providing you with a statement indicating what entity got what amount. You better contact them and get this straightened out or you will be in a mess come tax time.

Your question is an easy one. You are self-employed. However, as others have pointed out, you need to do a lot of things on your end not to have a bunch of tax liabilities (and possible penalties) you haven't prepared for if you don't have all your ducks in a row.
