Becoming a contract employee 1099

I am thinking about doing a second part-time job which will be 1099.  What can I do so I don't get affected by my taxes? 

 

Thank you, 

Stela Moreno

"What can I do so I don't get affected by my taxes? "

 

Not sure what you mean by not getting affected.  Of course you will be affected.  You will pay self-employment tax for Social Security and Medicare if you are self-employed, as well as ordinary income tax.  Do you mean how do you anticipate the SE tax to avoid a big tax due at tax time?  You can pay estimated quarterly tax to spread it out and avoid a big tax bill.
