If you didn’t file any quarterly estimated returns and payments, with a self-employment income of $40K, you’ll owe a lot of taxes unless you have a large total of related expenses. It would be wise to see a CPA, not someplace like H&R Block, to prepare your return for 2006.

You’ll file a form 1040, and a schedule C or C-EZ showing your business income and expenses, and a schedule SE to calculate self-employment tax.

If you are now on a W-2 basis, your employer should be withholding the proper amount based on the W-4 you provided. Filing estimated taxes for the income that was not withheld is inappropriate at this time.

You need to file Form Schedule C – Profit or Loss from Business or Profession; report
the 40K as income and claim deductions against this income. You dont have receipts -
which is OK. Really, OK. The IRS has created tables for these types of unique situations – estimates of business deductions claimed at certain income levels. These tables are hard to find on the net.

My suggestion is for you to find a tax practitioner or CPA to prepare your 06 taxes.

The preparer will take a conservative approach in creating deductions for you that will not raise a flag.

Owing taxes is not the end of the world. The preparer will prepare an installment agreement with you and the IRS to pay the remainder of your tax liability ($ 250 per month, $ 500 per month, etc).

These scenarios happen to people all of the time. You are not alone, and you are not considered a criminal. Just a little naive. Next time when you discover that an employer
does not withhold, you must pay your taxes, Federal and State, on an estimated tax basis.

Best Wishes.

When you fill out your tax forms, there are places to enter the amounts on the 1099′s.

The people that gave them to you also filed a copy with the IRS so you definitely need to declare that income. The IRS already knows about it.

Since you haven’t paid any taxes on it at all, you are going to owe a hefty chunk in taxes. You might want to consider using a CPA to help you figure this out. The cost of the CPA is likely to be less than what it would cost you in the mistakes you could make on this since you were basically in business for yourself and likely have business deductions, I would urge you to see someone that can help you with this.
