I work in TV/Film and because of the strikes, I started a sewing business from my home. I registered with the county (Delaware County in New York) as a sole proprietor/DBA as I don't have any employees. Would it benefit me to get an EIN number? What about a wholesale number? Can I deduct the expenses from setting up my studio? It's a dedicated space in an apartment above my garage. Also, much of my payments come through Venmo. Should I set up a separate business account through Venmo? So far I've made about $1200 total.
