What is the name of your state (only U.S. law)? Arkansas
Okay, so until this year I was working for my employer as an actual employee, but this year she cut back and I'm the only one working, and it off an on again work. She told me I would be an independent contractor (I've only done work for her) and I would have to do a 1099 this year. I understand that this means I pay my own taxes at the end of the year, but I keep reading these outrageous amounts people are paying so I'm kind of freaking out. So, far this year she has paid me $11,000 I'm single, but my fiance can/has claimed me on his tax returns so I'm not a head of household or anything and I have no dependents. Any idea what I can expect to pay this year? Oh, and this is the only job I have, so there won't be any other type of income to list.
