This episode is a discussion of how workers can challenge their misclassification as independent contractors through the IRS SS-8 process.

I discuss best practices for how practitioners can identify, address, and remedy misclassification on behalf of clients. I discuss the IRS procedures, including the accurate reporting of misclassification income as wages on tax returns, that individuals should know.
