I get paid by a fiscal agent to provide care for my disabled son.  However when reviewing my W2 this year, I noticed that there were no Social Security taxes withheld?  

I have never seen this before, can someone explain why this might be the case?

If the agency did not withhold social security tax from our W2 for Medicaid Waiver payments, it is most likely because they consider you an employee of your disabled son that qualifies for the domestic services exceptions.
