Stupid - yes. I have been a 1099 as a side gig for 2 years and always paid quarterly.
This year I worked some other jobs and didn't think I had made as much.
Anyway my stupidity. It is 18K total earnings. I have 1,700 in write offs not including my 200 sq ft work space. Plus not including depreciation of computer and phone.
I have yet to file, waiting on a document from an employer that was a W4. How bad of hot water can I be in?
1. I know that overpayment on my other job that isn't a 1099 can help. As well as any overpayment my spouse paid at their job which isn't a 1099.
2. I know that 18K isn't all that much. Usually I I pay 30% to IRS and 5% to my state flat tax.
3. I have a couple grand in savings for my 2024 estimated payment, thought I would hold on to that until after I see the damage.
4. Can I do a payment plan and I have credit cards that have cash back. if the cash back = more than the fees then could paying a monthly payment on cc then paying off cc to collect my cash back, even if it's a few bucks, be worth while? I pay off my CC's every month. I would never pay it all on my CC at once as 29% APR is more than the IRS I read can make you pay in % owed back. I would only use it maybe to pay the MONTHLY payment IF it made sense.
5. How long can the IRS extend a payment plan out. Household is married joint filing and we probably together made 115K. We have student loan deduction, mortgage, car taxes deduction and a dependent.
I made one thousand dollars more on my 1099 this year than last year. For one quarter I made nothing. So I am not sure how the IRS will look at it.
