As such, you are paid a gross payment with no taxes taken out.You may be required to pay estimated tax payments throughout the year.You may be eligible to deduct part of the cost of your automobile if you drive clients to properties.You may be eligible to deduct a portion or all of your health insurance costs if you pay for it.There is a 20% QBI deduction that you may be entitled to.If you knew all of the above, go ahead with a software.
