Statutory Employees (Too Brief)
Many people who work at home or who are paid on a commission basis (such as life insurance agents or salespeople) are classified by the IRS as statutory employees. This means your employer may have to withhold taxes in the same way as regular employees. No more and no less.

Special Occupations/Misc. Professions
Certain occupations have special rules that pertain only to them, such as industrial homeworkers and youth employees. Industrial homeworkers are individuals who work in their own homes manufacturing a product for someone else, including craft-making and sewing.
