      OUCH, that sucks man. Perhaps you should ask your accountant about a payment plan. They say that in most cases, you can just put down a few bucks and get setup on a plan. They can reject the proposal, but most of the time, they'll go along with it IF you haven't done it the year before.

            If you do ANY work with an iq higher than your shoe size in this business $17K IS the MIMIMUM monthly payment on the payment plan.

              Ummmm.... they state that if you owe LESS THAN $25K, they can put you on a plan. I know that I underpaid my quarterly payments by $2462 and my accountant said that I should be able to get on a payment plan with that.

                      Ha ha ha, yeah, I guess so. I read that 25K info on a tax website, I'll have to dig that up, hopefully it's right, he he. My accountant filed the payment plan for me, so I'm sure that they know what they're doing. They did say that it could be rejected, BUT that it shouldn't be.

                              sounds like poor planning to me. Yes it sux, but many people owe 5 times that ammount and they paid. as a rule of thumb, put half of what you make, (which shouldnt be a problem because after dedctutions it seems like you made 80k in cash) aside. Plus, paying it will help you. look at is as an investment. Its no ones fault but your own that you didnt see it coming.

                              As a side note, and im not saying this is what you did, but its always better to invest money you make into your own businesses, forget the benz, big screens, etc. and purchase things to help your business grow.

                                          90k would require about 30k in taxes...

                                            what I was really trying to say, is my guess that you made in checks deposited into your bank account was around 180k. so, if you put half aside you'd have 90k less your taxes of 17k leaving you with 73k to play with a year, which is plenty in my book.

                                            So vacations, a sweet car, and whatever else are not out of the question.

                                            I was so concerned about my taxes that I overly compensated for it and I was happy I did. When I found out what I owed I was completely happy.

                                            Im not trying to give advice, but what you owe and what you made are completely different. Im guessing my above figure should be in the ballpark of what you actually grossed (180k).

                                            most people on this board would give there right nut for that ammount.

                                              one thing i learned in life is that you can never make enough money,,, you live your lifestyle according to how much you make and its always never enough but just enough to get buy,,,

                                              shit i remember when i got out of the military and got a job making 16.50 an hour as a tech for MCI.... shit i though i was rich,, but after awhile it was never enough because i stayed in a better apartment and had a better car,,,

                                              then i got another job making 25 an hour,, i really thought i was rich then,, same situation though i was still broke,, you live your life according to how much you make and it's always never enough,,

                                              thats why i find out it was possible that big named celebrities and music artists making millions can go bankrupt...

                                              but this year i'll try to change though,, thanks puremeds

                                                Playa not sure if anyone has mentioned this, but you need to get away from the self employment shit... You need to incorporate and become an employee of the incorporation! you can write off more shit and you have a few other kick ass things you can take advantage of. I have a really good attorney that has setup our company and sub companies. she is an attorney and cpa so she knows this shit REALLY well. hit me up on ICQ: 138941940 and I can give you her information!

                                                Good Luck

                                                    I sense sarcasm, but hey what the hell.

                                                    your post just reminded me of a friend of mine who, in his words, got fucked by the IRS.

                                                    But the reality is he let himself get fucked by the IRS. I do not think its necessarily a bad thing to not let the carriage get ahead of the horse.

                                                    it is a real bitch to cut large checks to the IRS, but when you go to buy a house or whatever it helps you out as long as you continue the trend for 2 years or more. Which is why you shouldnt spend this years money on last years taxes.

                                                          Here's a quick way for some quick cash:

                                                          Sell Crack! Either your own or by the bag.

                                                          Someone will pay money for either.

                                                              Self emplyment taxes have been around forever... and you have to pay the full 100% of the social security tax as well.

                                                              Plan on a minimum of 38% of your income for taxes. We have both worked as self employed ppl for years so we have abit of insight on it. lol And we don't pay the quarterly payments either. WHY do that when you can sock the $$ in a bank and make interest on it instead of Dubya making the extra cash? The govt sticks it in the bank and makes money FROM your money. ;-)

This allows you to pay yourself minimum wage and receive dividends - saves about 10% of your income from the taxman and loads of tax-deductable expenses.
                                                                        There are also what are known as 'shell' companies - an office with half a dozen admin - which allow you to register yourself with them so you are set up as a limited company but without the hassle of loads of paperwork.

                                                                            Plan on a minimum of 38% of your income for taxes. We have both worked as self employed ppl for years so we have abit of insight on it. lol And we don't pay the quarterly payments either. WHY do that when you can sock the $$ in a bank and make interest on it instead of Dubya making the extra cash? The govt sticks it in the bank and makes money FROM your money. ;-)
                                                                            If I'm not mistaken you get hit with an underpayment penalty at the end of the year if you don't pay quarterly.

                                                                            As for self employment tax, there's no way around it. Doesn't matter if you're incorporated or an LLC or whatever.
                                                                            When you work for someone else, half of your FICA comes out of your check, and that $$ amount is then matched by your employer.
                                                                            If you work for yourself, you have to pay the employees share and the employers share. Whether its paid by "your corporation" or by you personally, it still gets paid.
