tax? how to

Hi

What?s the best way to keep track for tax time? Are Quick books pro good enough?

I saw that many of the programs require a social security number or Federal Tax ID. What is better work under a business Tax ID or the SS#?

Thanks

Did you use a Fed Tax ID or just your social security number?

Do we pay tax like it was an self employed?

Quicken (whatever the top vers is currently) or Quick Books Pro are the best tools to print reports for your account. Saves time which saves you $$. But you do have to have the receipts with notations of what it is exactly for each item on it in case of the IRS shakedowns. Use your SS# and you are Joe Smith dba such and such site.

Yeah, I just got a trial version of quick books pro. I think it's the best out right now.

Gemini,

Do you know how Webmasters are taxed? Is it treated like an business?

I thought about an business license but I heard many just use their SS#

eded081,

basically you get taxed like this:
you will pay federal tax ( the amount dependent upon what you make ) you will also have to pay state tax if you live in a state that has a state tax and you will have to social security/ self-employment tax which is about 15% of your income. If you make any real money in this biz don't be suprised to see yourself paying about 40% of your income to taxes.

Quick Books is an excellent program to use. I also believe that once you make over a certain amount, I think like $600.00 in a year, the company that is paying you has to issue you a 1099 form at tax time.
