Good conversation. I was an LLC and paid the IRS as an S-Corp. Because the filings where too much for me I used a payroll company. Not sure I really saved much because it cost so much for the payroll company and for the CPA. After reading what David and Steve had to say I think I may neve

If you are working as a freelancer / contractor you should get a 1099 each year. I think the government becomes aware when they get the 1099 the year after your earnings. Several gotchas 1) you will pay 15.3% for social security / medicare because you are the employer and the employee. 2
