Non-profit Saying That I'm A 1099 When I'm Pretty Sure I'm An Employee
Earlier this fall I was hired into a 501(c)(3) organization in Illinois to teach community classes. It's a brand new organization, so I made sure to have my I-9, W-4 and IL-W4 submitted prior to starting teaching (I have emails back and forth with me asking for the tax forms, them sending the tax forms, and me sending them back completed.
I just received my first paycheck and noticed that there was no check stub included. I emailed the person who hired me and they said “As a contractor I don’t believe we do paystubs since you will be accountable for your own taxes.”. Then they said “Ok I see what we’ve been doing wrong. We are supposed to be receiving invoices from you and [other teacher]l. Since you both are 1099 workers. A payment remittance statement showing what invoice or work period the payment covers is what we can send out. My apologies. I can send that out if you would like?”
I'm really confused now. There was no discussion of being hired as an independent contractor when I was hired and I don't think I qualify as one now. I'm just not sure what to do now. Do I contact the department of labor?
