    1) A baby-sitter who earns $1, 300 a year

    Explanation:

    In the following cases, the Social Security and Medicare taxes are paid

    1. Nanny earning $22,000 yearly

    2. Cook salary $35,000 yearly

    3. Cleaning lady salary $8,000

    So, the first option is not required as according to publication number 926 of the internal revenue system, the annual payment would be exceeded than $2,000. If the annual payment is not exceeded the same would not be taxable.

    Since the baby sitter earning is $1,300 yearly which is less than $2,000, so the same is not taxable.
