Sole proprietorship state and federal tax forms

[lynlegray4397]

I am an owner of an Inteiror Design business (sole prop), no employees. I filed my ST-12 sales and tax form ($0) on the WI revenue site already. My question is,  Im supposed to file a 1099 or W2 by Jan 31st But im not sure which one to do or if those two are the correct form. I did make $4,000 on cash/check consultations, so do I need to file a 1099, W2 or 1040 return to the state in order to get the form in the mail AND file in turbo tax as well?

If I am reading this correctly, it does not sound like you need to file a 1099 or a W-2 by 01/31.   You only need to do that if you either 

• Paid employees (you have none, so not necessary) - they get a W-2 
• You paid someone else for goods or services over $600 - they get a 1099-Misc

The money you earned will be filed on your personal tax return (Form 1040) on Schedule C, but you have until 04/15 to file that.
