1099's

Working as an independent contractor or small business owner can bring tremendous freedom—but it can also bring headaches at tax time if you’re not careful. In addition to filing income taxes each April, you’re also required to set aside money for estimated quarterly taxes. That’s standard if you receive Form 1099s from clients versus a W-2 and expect to owe $1,000 or more in taxes for the year. You can work with a tax professional who is an expert to help you figure out the right amount of taxes to set aside each year.
