What Freelancers Should Know About Taxes

Quick summary:

1.  There are seven tax brackets for the 2021 tax year: 10 percent, 12 percent, 22 percent, 24 percent, 32 percent, 35 percent and 37 percent. 

2. While S-Corporation income isn't subject to self-employment taxes the way sole proprietor income is, if you elect to be taxed as an S-Corporation, you must pay yourself a salary in the form of W-2 wages that are subject to FICA taxes, which is known as reasonable compensation.

3. An S-Corporation does not pay tax; instead, profits and/or loss flow to the taxpayer and is claimed on their personal tax return

Quick summary:

1. Customers can get confused and think that they should pay a flat fee for gross receipts up to $100,000, plus the tax rate on the remaining receipts, however, the correct amount to file and pay is based on multiplying the total gross receipts by the tax rate, said Susan Anderson, the communications director for Arlington's Office of the Commissioner of Revenue.

2. Independent workers can deduct their expenses from their state and federal taxes, but locally, Arlington's Business, Professional and Occupational License (BPOL) tax collects on pre-expense revenue, or gross receipts
