You are confused. No one is paid by a 1040.
A Form 1040 is an individual US tax return. It is filled out by all individual taxpayers at the end of the year to calculate their tax liability. That includes employees, the self-employed, and even the unemployed.
Yes...while it has certain tax detriments...being self employed also has many benefits!
In general yes if your business is a proprietorship. You will also have to file the 1040-se self employment tax and the 1040-c profit or loss from a proprietorship as part of your regular income. . If your business incorporated you will file a tax return for the corporation and your personal taxes will include and payroll you paid yourself and you may or may not have to file a 1040 depending on your personal tax situation.
If you're self employed, you start with Form 1040. You also need to fill out Schedule C (Profit or Loss from Business) or, if your business expenses are less than $5,000, Schedule C-EZ (Net Profit from Business). Entries from C or C-EZ go on line 12 of 2009 Form 1040.As a self employed person, you must pay Self-Employment Tax for Social Security and Medicare. You figure this tax on Schedule SE (Self-Employment Tax). Entries from Schedule SE go on line 56 of 2009 Form 1040.Also, don't forget that you're entitled to a credit for one-half of the Self-Employment Tax that you paid. That amount is entered on line 27 of 2009 Form 1040.
Yes this is very possible.
Self-employment tax is separate from income tax. Self-employment tax is actually the Social Security and Medicare taxes on self-employment income. The tax rate for Social Security is 12.4%. The tax rate for Medicare is 2.9%. When you are employed by another person, one-half of your Social Security and Medicare taxes are withheld from your gross wages. The other half is paid by your employer. When you are self-employed, you are both the employee and the employer, and must pay 100% of the Social Security and Medicare taxes due on your self-employment income. These taxes often come as a major shock to the newly self-employed. SE income is usually calculated on Form 1040 Schedule C. SE tax is calculated on Form 1040 Schedule SE.
