Get your taxes done using TurboTax

@Janolo71   Not sure what was going on with the previous user who was having 10% of his check withheld  as a "fee" but was a self-employed contract worker whose earnings would be reported on a 1099Misc.

Hopefully you are not in a similar fishy situation.

 

If your earnings will be reported on a 1099Misc you can expect to pay 15.3% for Self-Employment tax--Social Security and Medicare--plus ordinary income tax at your tax rate.   If you are being paid without any SS, Medicare or taxes being withheld, you are not receiving "net" pay.  You are receiving only your gross pay.  So please explain if anything is being withheld.  Why do you say you have "net" and "gross" pay?

If you are new to being self-employed, SuperUser @VolvoGirl and @Critter have some good advice you should read.
