Self employed

Hi Aaron,

 

Your tax deductions will be your business expenses.  Generally, a business expense must be ordinary and necessary to qualify for a deduction.  Some common deductions can include communication costs, office supplies, licenses or permits, mileage, advertising costs, professional fees, liability insurance, banking fees, and health care premiums. 

What self-employed expenses can I deduct?

Are professional dues deductible?

What types of meal and entertainment expenses are 100% deductible on a business return? 

Can I take the home office deduction?

 

You may be eligible for the Qualified Business Income Deduction (QBID) if you are either self-employed, a sole proprietor, or an owner in an LLC, Partnership or S Corporation. 

What is the Qualified Business Income (QBI) deduction?

 

One of the benefits is saving for retirement.
