Get your taxes done using TurboTax

You must pay 15.3% self employment tax on most of the $11,700 of income or about $1790 and 10% federal income tax on the difference between $11,700 and $6,300 (your standard deduction) or about $540. This comes out higher than $2200 because the self employment tax is actually a little less than $1790.
