In this episode: Tax Changes Coming: New tax legislation is expected, though details remain unclear. Income vs. Consumption Tax: Some Republicans propose replacing income tax with a national sales tax—unlikely to gain traction. IRS Under Pressure: Talk of abolishing the IRS is unrealistic. Staffing cuts and layoffs have worsened service, especially for notice resolution. Startup Deductions: A proposed bill would raise the startup cost deduction from $5K to $20K, easing the burden on new businesses. Contractor vs. Employee Crackdown: IRS is stepping up enforcement. Misclassification risks penalties—accurate documentation is key. Section 530 Relief: Offers protection if contractors were treated consistently and proper forms were filed. Americans Abroad: U.S. citizens must pay tax on worldwide income but can exclude up to $130K if they meet certain residency tests. We are joined by, Brett Emmons, founder of the BE LIFE Institute, who shares his journey from youth empowerment to launching a movement that bridges personal and professional growth. Inspired by a chance encounter and the book Reinventing Organizations, Brett helps business and nonprofit leaders evolve their organizations using systems that mirror living ecosystems—emphasizing shared leadership, intention, and adaptability. Through retreats, masterminds, and coaching, BE LIFE empowers leaders to harmonize life and work, unlocking what Brett calls “whole life wealth.”

Can you imagine being accused of a crime you didn't commit? Even worse, imagine this happening while outside your home country - and in a language you don't fully understand.  What would you do? In this episode of the Truth Be Told podcast, host Dave Thompson speaks with Amanda Knox about her life after the wrongful conviction that changed her life - and made international headlines. They discuss the challenges of reclaiming her story, the impact of social media on public perception, and the importance of remembering the victims in wrongful conviction cases. Amanda shares her experiences leading up to the tragic murder of her friend Meredith Kercher and the chaotic aftermath that followed, including the media's misinterpretation of her reactions and the struggle for truth in a polarized and misinformed world. In this conversation, Amanda Knox shares her harrowing experience of wrongful conviction and the psychological impact of her interrogation. She discusses the assumptions made by investigators, the tactics used during her interrogation, and the broader implications of false confessions. Knox emphasizes the importance of understanding the trauma associated with wrongful convictions and the need for reform in interrogation practices. The conversation also touches on the media narratives that shaped public perception and the ongoing consequences for those wrongfully accused. Learn more about Amanda's work on her website and check out her podcast, Labryinths.  Truths: Amanda feels she is still chasing her narrative, as the day her identify was “stolen” was when she was interrogated and told her reality was different than what she knew to be true. Reactions to the crime scene were misinterpreted, without supporting context or information for the public to know. Media judgment can (and has) distorted public perception and interpretation of major incidents. Similar to witnesses and victims exposed to traumatic events, Amanda's emotional response was misunderstood. Misclassification can lead to devastating consequences in investigations. The criminal justice system was never on Amanda's radar. Investigators made assumptions that led to wrongful conclusions. False confessions often stem from coercive tactics or confirmation bias in investigations. Wrongful convictions affect not just the victim of the crime, but also the wrongly convicted individual, their families and loved ones. Often forgotten in a wrongful conviction is the impact to public safety which allows the actual perpetrator to continue to commit additional crimes. Understanding the psychological impact of interrogation is crucial for everyone involved. Reform in interrogation practices is necessary to prevent false confessions.

Navigating the challenges of working with independent contractors as an agency owner is no small feat. Your agency's reputation, especially your own, hinges on contractors doing their jobs well. Many owners feel compelled to control contractor performance to ensure the work meets their high standards. However, regulations for independent contractors clearly state that contractors must have control over how they perform their roles. If an agency owner restricts this, it can blur the lines into an employer/employee relationship. Misclassification, as determined by the state or IRS, can lead to fines, back taxes, and potential business loss. Join us as we delve into the intricacies of utilizing contractors for agency work, exploring best practices, legal considerations, and strategies for success.

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.  Here are some important resources on worker misclassification: Philadelphia Legal Assistance page on misclassification Center for Urban Pedagogy-designed poster that I worked on regarding misclassification U.S. Department of Labor page on misclassification Presentation on misclassification that I did with attorney Rebecca Stavish IRS instructions on Form SS-8 My most recent Procedurally Taxing blog post on 26 U.S.C. 7434 (discussed in episode)

The Urban Indian Heritage Society is shaking up the understanding of American families' heritage with groundbreaking research. In their upcoming presentation at The Jamaica Theological Seminary's Caribbean Thought class, the UIHS will challenge conventional beliefs about Jamaica's identity and heritage, particularly concerning the Taino people, who were the island's original inhabitants. Contrary to popular belief, the UIHS argues that Jamaicans may have a rich history linked to the native Indians of the land. While acknowledging the presence of East Indians and Chinese who arrived during the era of indentured labor, the UIHS stresses the importance of reexamining Jamaica's history beyond the predominant African heritage resulting from the slave trade. Dr. Nolan Fontaine, and author Phoenix Moon, founders of the UIHS, will lead the presentation and share their research findings. They contend that genealogical research uncovers an urban American Indian root in Jamaica, challenging the established narrative of the island's history. In addition to their research, the UIHS has organized a petition titled "Remedy for the Misclassified People of North America!" This petition calls for the enactment of the American Indian Inclusion Act to address the mistreatment and erasure of the Misclassified American Indian by the United States Government. The petition outlines a comprehensive set of demands, including the reclassification of ethnic birthrights, the return of occupied American Indian lands, restitution, punitive damages, and institutional reform. Key demands in the petition include establishing a genealogical committee to examine bloodline lineage, creating an oversight committee for tribal membership appeals, and recognizing the American Indian Political Party. The petition also seeks the removal of taxation on American Indian lands, the repeal of HR 4238, special reform bills for social services and education, and the implementation of American Indian studies throughout educational institutions. To garner attention for their cause, the UIHS will present the petition and a detailed manifesto of grievances to the United States Congress. They are calling for public hearings and the formation of oversight committees to review and implement the American Indian Inclusion Act, with the aim of rectifying historical injustices faced by the misclassified American Indian. The UIHS's special presentation at The Jamaica Theological Seminary's Caribbean Thought class is scheduled for Monday, June 12th, 2023, from 6 pm to 9 pm. The presentation can be accessed via the following link: Zoom Link. Join Dr. Nolan Fontaine, Phoenix Moon, and the Urban Indian Heritage Society as they challenge the misclassification of American families' heritage and illuminate Jamaica's rich history.

Welcome to episode 117 of the Own Your Genius podcast. Hiring help in your business is a huge milestone for many entrepreneurs. Many business owners step their toe into the hiring pool by starting with virtual assistants under the assumption that they are independent contractors rather than employees. But what happens when the assumption is wrong?  Listen and learn as Attorney Murray discusses the differences between an independent contractor and an employee.  Today's episode could save you thousands of dollars in legal fees and tax fines.  Today's episode covers:  1. How to determine if your new hire is a contractor or employee  2. The consequences of misclassification  3. Why contracts can't define the independent contractor relationship  Want to join the conversation? Head over to the MARKEDlegal community to chime in.

In this episode, we discuss the differences between an employee and an independent contractor. We are asked this question a lot and it is important you correctly classify your staff. Misclassification can potentially result in fees, penalties, and back taxes so we want to make sure we get this right!Here are the links that we discuss in this podcast: https://www.bacb.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/05/BACB_November2018_Newsletter-200826.pdf?fbclid=IwAR130MrfjBOUmnS2Lsy83W_-SmepheX1TXvcgMohS48jwM3yZovPlMt_qnQAnd https://www.irs.gov/businesses/small-businesses-self-employed/independent-contractor-self-employed-or-employee

In this episode we have a conversation with Patrick Bradshaw about issues related to measurement error, misclassification, and information bias. We ask him to help define and clarify the differences between these concepts. We chat about dependent and differential forms of misclassification and how helpful DAGs can be for identifying these sources of bias. Patrick helps to explain the problem with the over-reliance on non-differential bias producing a bias toward the null and concerns about being “anchored to the null” in epidemiologic analyses. This episode will also serve to provide you with the most up-to-date information from Patrick on his recommendations about excellent new TV shows to stream (Wednesday on Netflix; Wandavision on Disney+). Two thumbs up.

A new report from the Economic Policy Institute found that anywhere from 10 to 30 percent of employers are essentially stealing thousands of dollars from their workers every year by misclassifying them as independent contractors. In addition to lower pay, those misclassified workers are also deprived of employer-provided benefits like health care and labor rights like basic safety regulations. Returning guest Heidi Shierholz walks us through the report and explains how to figure out if your employer is stealing from you by classifying you as an independent contractor. Heidi Shierholz is the president of the Economic Policy Institute, a nonprofit, nonpartisan think tank that uses the power of its research on economic trends and on the impact of economic policies to advance reforms that serve working people, deliver racial justice, and guarantee gender equity.
