1-) Get an accountant. They aren't nearly as expensive as people think they are. I don't know why anyone would WANT to do their taxes on their own. My accountant, he's been in the family for over 20 years, charges me $25 bucks for any amount of work he has to do for my income. I write off as much as I possibly can. My office is home so I have things like my phone lines, electric bills, ISP bills etc as write offs, because they are all business expenses.
2-) Don't try to evade anything. Instead try to reduce it as much as possible. Save all of your check stubs from sponsors, all of your receipts for purchases you made throughout the year. You can find ways to write off anything and everything, if you can prove it's business related. Ink cartridge for your printer? Receipt? Write off. Gas driving to the store to pick up office supplies? Write off. Take a client/business associate out to lunch? Write off. Little things like that... it's all business related.
If you don't have the lump sum to pay the IRS, they are more than flexible with monthly or quarterly payments. Even if you are a year or 2 behind on taxes, you can pay your fines and work out payment arrangements. Paying taxes SUCKS but work with what you have. If it costs you money and you use it for work or in your work enviroment, you have oodles of wonderful little write offs. Every dollar adds up.
I do not feel one ounce of remorse for finding as many income tax deductions as I can, because of the nonstop taxation on everyday purchases I make, more than contributes to the government and state.
