Contractor FAQ
Common questions from our independent contractors
Am I an employee of CAS Private Care?
No. As a 1099 independent contractor, you are self-employed. You control your own schedule, rates, and choose which jobs to accept. CAS Private Care provides the platform to connect you with clients.
How do I handle taxes as a 1099 contractor?
As an independent contractor, you're responsible for your own taxes. We recommend setting aside 25-30% of your earnings for taxes and consulting with a tax professional. You may be able to deduct business expenses like mileage, supplies, and professional development.
Can I work for other platforms or clients?
Absolutely! As an independent contractor, you're free to work with other platforms, agencies, or private clients. Many of our contractors diversify their income sources.
What happens if I need to cancel a booking?
We understand that life happens. You can cancel bookings through your dashboard with as much notice as possible. Frequent last-minute cancellations may affect your profile rating and visibility on the platform.
Do I need my own equipment or supplies?
For housekeepers, clients typically provide cleaning supplies, but you may bring your preferred products. For caregivers, the client's home has what you need. You'll want reliable transportation to get to client locations.
