FAQ

Conversely, if the independent contractor is not a US person and did not perform any of their services within the US, you will not be required to issue Form 1099. Instead, the foreign contractor will have to complete and file Form W-8BEN.

Paying Taxes as an Independent Contractor You'll need to file a tax return with the IRS if your net earnings from self-employment are $400 or more. Along with your Form 1040, you'll file a Schedule C to calculate your net income or loss for your business.

Form W-8BEN-E is designed for nonresident alien (NRA) contractors operating as entities rather than sole traders. This form allows contractor entities to claim reductions or exemptions from US withholding tax based on their foreign tax residence, just like Form W-8BEN.

The 1099 form is used to report non-employment income to the Internal Revenue Service (IRS). Businesses are typically required to issue a 1099 form to a taxpayer (other than a corporation) who has received at least $600 or more in non-employment income during the tax year.

Generally, report this amount from Form 1099-MISC Miscellaneous Income, Box 3 on the Other Income line of Schedule 1 (Form 1040) Additional Income and Adjustments to Income, Line 8.

Answer: Independent contractors generally report their income on Schedule C (Form 1040), Profit or Loss from Business (Sole Proprietorship). Also file Schedule SE (Form 1040), Self-Employment Tax if your net earnings from self-employment are $400 or more.

Form 1099 is used to report payments made to an independent contractor. Expat business owners may need to file Form 1099 when working with contractors abroad. Failing to file Form 1099 as required could result in penalties.
