What this page is20 rows held · newest sealed read 2026-09-08
- The test below is quoted from Wis. Stat. 108.02(12), fetched from the official page on 2026-09-08. The words are the source’s, not ours.
- We hold 2 prong passage(s) and 0 penalty passage(s) for this jurisdiction.
- Next to each prong is the list of documents an auditor would expect to see behind an answer. That list is the product; the answer is yours.
- This file does not decide anything. Only a court or an agency can classify a worker, and only on the whole record. What you get here is the official test in the statute's own words, your answers written next to the prong each one touches, and the documents an auditor would ask to see.
Real rows out of our sealed copies
Not affiliated with any state labor agency, the US Department of Labor or the IRS. Not legal, tax or professional advice. This is an evidence file, not an opinion: it lays out the official test and your own answers side by side and never says what the worker is. Statute and agency text quoted from the official pages listed on each page. Read 2026-09-08. The first table is the official text, prong by prong. The second is the eighteen questions the free tool asks and the documents behind each one.

What this page cannot tell you
- This page carries the official words and nothing else. It does not say what any worker is, is likely to be, or should be, and no page here does.
- A statute page can move or be amended. Every quote carries the date we read it, and the refresh re-reads each one and flags any whose words have changed.
- One jurisdiction's test is not the whole picture: federal wage law and federal tax law ask their own questions, on their own pages here.
See the file before you pay
You do not have to take our word for what is in the file. Here are 25 rows of the real thing, carrying all 5 of its columns, cut out of the dated copies we sealed ourselves. Nothing in it is made up and nothing in it is tidied up.
- Open the 25 rows as a CSVA plain spreadsheet file. It saves to your machine rather than painting itself into a browser tab, and it opens in Excel, Numbers or Google Sheets.
- The same 25 rows as JSONThe same rows again, laid out for reading with code.
What arrives after you pay: one private web page — the prong-by-prong evidence sheet for your state with your answers echoed, the document checklist as tick boxes you can export, the penalty text, the federal factor sheets and a printable cover sheet — within 15 minutes of payment.
What you would be paying for: $49 once, for one private web page holding your contractor audit file. Nothing recurring, nothing to cancel and no subscription behind it. You get your state's worker-status test set out prong by prong in the statute's own words with a link to the official page, your own questionnaire answers written next to the prong each one touches, the documents an auditor would expect behind each answer as a checklist you can tick and export, the penalty section quoted where the official page names an amount, the federal IRS and Department of Labor factor sheets, and a printable cover sheet. This is an evidence file, not an opinion. It does not say what the worker is, is likely to be, or should be, because only a court or an agency can decide that and only on the whole record. It is not legal or tax advice and we are not your lawyer. Statute text can change and an official page can move; the page carries the date each quote was read and says so if a quote has changed since. Not every state is covered — the free page lists which are quoted and which are not, and why. Refund on request within 14 days. There is no pay button on this page yet. The private page is delivered within 15 minutes of payment. Still not here after 15 minutes? Reply to your Stripe receipt.
These 25 rows are a slice of the file, not the whole of it. What we cannot show you here is how far back it goes: that is the part you are paying for.
