    Is my employer "supposed to" withhold federal taxes
    My Employer misclassified me as an Independent Contractor and has been told by the DOL WHD investigator of this back Jan 3 2012. As of yet my Employer is still not withholding any taxes from me nor are they paying me overtime. They have done nothing to change my status thinking I am unaware of the investigation. What are my options? Do I owe back income tax or do they and can I sue and how much can I sue for? California Employer
