Paid someone on a 1099 all season? If he files for unemployment this winter or gets hurt on the job, your state opens a file, and the first question is whether he was really a contractor. #1099

10/28/2026

Paying a helper every Friday and planning to hand him a 1099? If he rides in your truck, runs your mower and works the hours you set, the 1099 isn't protecting you. The facts decide. #1099

Most of what can still change your 2026 tax bill has to happen by December 31st, not in April. Before anything else, get your books current, so you know your actual profit before you make any December decisions.

If a misclassified worker gets hurt and there's no workers' comp policy, the medical bills, lost wages and a possible lawsuit land on you personally. Every chainsaw and skid steer carries that risk.

Real subcontractor: own truck, own equipment, own insurance, works for other companies, sends you an invoice. Shows up at seven because you said so and gets paid every Friday? Calling that a 1099 doesn't change what it is. #1099

10/26/2026

Misclassify a worker and you owe the payroll taxes that should have been paid (your share plus part or all of the worker's), plus penalties and interest, reaching back across prior years. Then your state wants its unemployment tax too. Caught it yourself? The IRS VCSP program can cut the bill. #1099

Bookkeeping and tax prep cost you something either way. Short on money? You pay with time: an hour or more a week doing your own books and learning what the IRS lets you deduct. Short on time or knowledge? You pay with money and hire a bookkeeper or tax advisor so you can spend that time growing the business.

Which currency are you paying with right now?

Can't pay the IRS all at once? Your 4 IRS payment options: a short-term plan (up to 180 days), a long-term installment agreement, a partial pay installment agreement, and an offer in compromise. Step one: file all your returns.

Self employed taxes: $80,000 profit means about $11,300 in self-employment tax before federal income tax.

10/25/2026

Quarterly estimated taxes for the self-employed: due in April, June, September and January. Paying 1/4 of last year's total tax each quarter (110% if your AGI is over $150K) usually avoids the penalty. Set aside 25-30% of every payment in a separate account.
