<p>If you are working as a freelancer / contractor you should get a 1099 each year. I think the government becomes aware when they get the 1099 the year after your earnings. </p>
<p>Several gotchas </p>
<p>1) you will pay 15.3% for social security / medicare because you are the employer and the employee. </p>
<p>2) you may be required to make periodic tax and social security / medicare deposits or based on how much you make you might only be required to pay when filing your taxes. </p>
<p>I prefer depositing what I owe monthly. I think this is the website that you can go to, set up an account, and make your payments: <a href="https://www.eftps.gov/eftps/" target="_blank">https://www.eftps.gov/eftps/</a> (it has been a while) <span>I prefer depositing monthly because I do not want to have a dry spell and then owe taxes as well. I even over pay so I get a refund. You do not want to owe $2000 .... $6,000 or more at the end of the year and not have it. </span></p>
<p><span>You should read <a href="https://www.eftps.gov/eftps/" target="_blank">https://www.eftps.gov/eftps/</a> contact the IRS with any questions (be prepared for a long wait time) and talk to an accountant. </span></p>
<p><span>As someone said, as a 1099 you can deduct a number of things you normally do not such as your cellular phone, use of home, hardware and software purchases, internet costs, office expenses.... etc. Check with your accountant.</span></p>
<p>Be very careful... you do not want to get into a snag. </p>

<div dir="auto">Got it. That I'm not sure about since that's kind of a grey area in my book. Idk if someone on here can chime in on that, or maybe a question for a accountant somewhere. Just dont want to give you false information.</div>

<div dir="auto">Also before I forget. Good thing about 1099 is you can deduct a lot of things to not pay so much. E.g: Gas to get to work, supplies, etc...</div>

<div dir="auto">Yes, you still have to report your earnings and pay taxes and I would assume the feds would get idea how much you make on your employers bank account statment. I wouldn't mess around not paying taxes, it could very much royally bite you in the butt by the IRS down the road.

<div dir="auto">I suggest asking around for a good tax accountant to help you with this.</div>

<div dir="ltr">I might get a 1099 job. How does the company report my earnings to the government? Is it reported yearly or monthly or is it something I have to do? Meaning the feds have no idea when you made it just that you made it..... when do they know it though?<br clear="all">
