I work as both a medical assistant and CNA. My full time job is as a medical assistant where I work 5 days a week full time. I have been a CNA for 8 years with the same company in a home care setting, and have often used them as a fallback when I change jobs or move. I recently purchased a home with my wife in the boonies, and picked up a weekend gig through my home care CNA company for 12 hours a week to help with some unexpected home buying expenses (needed new fridge, dishwasher, fix a few leaks, repair the well mainline, etc). I've always been 1099 through the home care agency.I have recently asked for an increase in pay since I am taking this new shift, as I had not received any increases since 2024 because I was working exclusively as a CMA in a doctor's office. The home care agency keeps CNAs and nurses on the books regardless of if they take shifts, even for years at a time, often paying for CEUs and such as well just to keep us as potential shift fillers down the road.I was granted an increase and, to my surprise, switched to a salary. I contacted my director of nursing as well as the accounting and HR department trying to rectify being switched to salary, because I did not want to be given extra responsibilities as a CNA when I have full time work elsewhere. I am still contracted as a 1099 and have always been a 1099. I was told by HR and the director of nursing that this wasn't a mistake on numerous occasions, but it most certainly was. I currently only work 12 hours a week, every Saturday, through the home care agency. As a result of being salary now, I'm being paid $880/wk for that work. I told HR this, and told them my contract is for hourly work. My signed contract is indeed for hourly, not salary.I have kept all the emails, but seeing as I'll be getting taxed on this if it continues through to 2027, is there any way they can sue me or demand refund for overpayment of services?
>>61687358You made it known and did your due diligence Not a lawyer/not legal advice but I'd shut the fuck up now and only worry if they actually threaten you with something and even then you have a good honest position of trying to ensure this was correct and change it
>>61687390My biggest worry is them demanding overpayment after I've paid taxes on it in the future.
