Of course you must file returns.

You will also most likely get forms called a 1099 from some of those who paid you or you brought from, which essentially show your in business.

You are required to make estimated payments every 3 months during the year, where you pay the taxes estimated to be due on your projected annual earnings (instead of having an employer do it through payroll withholding).
