Self-employment can be referred to a person who works for himself/herself instead of as an employee of another person or organization, drawing income from a trade or business. This person may additionally be referred to as a freelancer or by other ‘common’ names.
Self-employed persons are sometimes eligible for more deductions than an ordinary employee. Travel, uniforms, computer equipment, cell phones, etc., can be deducted as legitimate business expenses. There are a number of tax laws that affect those who are self employed, contractors, freelancers – remember you’ll be responsible for paying all of your own taxes, paying your own medical insurance and you’ll have to be familiar with the tax laws that apply to you.
The advice of an expert may be worth the money it costs.
