Tax Services for Freelancers & Independent Contractors

Self-employed professionals, gig workers, and independent contractors who need help with quarterly taxes, deductions, and self-employment tax. As a freelancer, your tax obligations are fundamentally different from W-2 employees. You must file Schedule C (Profit or Loss from Business) alongside your Form 1040, reporting all freelance income and deductible business expenses. Every 1099-NEC you receive from clients earning over $600 is also reported to the IRS, so accurate recordkeeping is essential. Beyond income tax, freelancers owe self-employment tax of 15.3% on net earnings — covering both the employer and employee portions of Social Security (12.4%) and Medicare (2.9%) — which often surprises first-time filers with a significantly higher tax bill than expected.
