Gig, 1099 and freelance

1099 work, and a tax bill you didn't see coming?

Uber, DoorDash, Instacart or freelance clients: Cora, your tax-prep guide, sorts your 1099s, counts your miles and costs, and shows what to set aside next quarter. $59.99 per return. Schedule C shows on the quote.

Sound familiar?

Nobody took taxes out

Apps and clients pay you in full. Self-employment tax for Social Security and Medicare comes due when you file.

A 1099-K that looks too big

It shows gross payments. Fees, miles and other costs come off before tax.

Miles you didn't track

Your app's trip history can help rebuild your business miles. We ask the right questions.

Quarterly what?

If you expect to owe, the IRS asks for payments during the year. We show a set-aside for each quarter.

How we fix it

  1. Tell us how you earned

    Apps, clients, a W-2 on the side. We list every 1099 to expect.

  2. We find your costs

    Miles, phone, supplies, fees and a home office, each with the rule behind it.

  3. Sign, then plan ahead

    See the return and the quote before you pay, plus a quarterly set-aside for next year.

Questions

Do I have to file if I only made a little?

If your net self-employment earnings were $400 or more, yes, even if you never got a 1099.

Is a 1099-K all profit?

No. It's gross payments. Fees, miles and other business costs come off first.

What will it cost?

The return is $59.99. Schedule C for your work is $24.99 and includes Schedule SE. You see the full quote before you pay.

When is my return filed?

After you review and approve it. We file once you approve and e-file is connected, and we don't promise a date we can't control.
