What do you do if a child care provider refuses to supply you with her social security number for tax purposes
Our usual child care provider took a long vacation in the summer. The other lady who watched our daughter during that time refuses to give me her social security number. I need to claim it on my tax forms. She charged us $150 per week for 8 weeks and I would like to claim this on my tax return. What should I do? This other lady runs a day care out of her house and is state licensed.

- If she is state licensed she probably has an EIN number and you use that insted of her social security number. If she won't give you an EIN number file your taxes with a note on the form that she refuses to give you her information. Give her name and address and they will contact her.
