[Event] Ask the Experts: Biz Recordkeeping & 1099-NEC Filing
What kind of business return do you file? If you just file it on Schedule C in your personal return you do not report or enter your pay or withdrawals.
Sole proprietors cannot take a withdrawal or salary and include it as an expense on their tax return. As a sole proprietor, you are not an employee of the business. You don't pay yourself or enter a salary or withdrawal for yourself. All the business income and expenses are your personal income and expenses in the first place. You just fill out a Schedule C. The net profit or loss is your income. If you have a net profit of $400 or more on schedule C you will pay SE self employment tax on it in addition to your regular income tax. It's all included on your personal 1040 form.
