US RECRUITMENT – EMPLOYEE TYPES

1. Contract - Corp-to-Corp

Definition: Corp-to-Corp the client, a corporation, pays to the business entity of US Citizen or Green Card Holder, which is organized as a corporation, for the services rendered. In other words any employment where the contact is between two (2) companies is called Corp-to-Corp.

Corp-to-Corp employment contract can happen in 2 cases.

Case – I: Any U.S. Citizen or any Green Card Holder can incorporate a company. Usually, people register a company to avail the tax benefits or save tax. This is a complicated set-up process. The person incorporating the company (Company A) can be the sole worker of the company and can take up employment with another company, a client (Company B). The client(Company B) will make the payment for the services rendered by the consultant to the corporation that the consultant owns. The consultant can then draw salary from his own company and pay tax. The client in this case is not liable to pay any tax on behalf of the consultant.

Case – II: This can also happen when a client company hires a consultant with H1B VISA. H1 is works permit VISA for all professionals who are neither US citizen nor Green card holder. In this case the consultant has an employer in the US, a registered corporation. This company allows the consultant to work for another company, a client, but the contract is signed between the employer company and the client. The consultant is a full time employee of his own company but a consultant with the client company.

Payment Terms: In this scenario the client company pays to the consultant’s company directly and does not deduct any tax, as payment of tax is the liability of the corporation rendering services.

Contract – Independent (1099)• Definition: This is actually sole proprietorship concern also called Independent. In other words a sole

proprietorship is an unincorporated business that is owned by one individual. It is the simplest form of business organization to start and maintain. The business has no existence other than the owner. Its liabilities are the owner’s personal liabilities.

• Payment Terms: In this scenario(1099) the client company pays directly to the independent contractor and does not withhold any tax.

Contract – W2

• Definition: This is the simplest option of all other options. There is no need of book keeping as is the case other options like Corp-to-Corp and 1099. In this case the wages of the contractor are subject to the same tax withholdings as a regular employee of the client. In such cases the liability of depositing tax is with the employing company. The approximate percentage of benefits and taxes is about 12.5 to 15% percent in some cases.
