If you are an independent contractor, then you are self-employed. The earnings of a person who is working as an independent contractor are subject to self-employment tax. To find out what your tax obligations are, visit the Self-Employed Individuals Tax Center.
Every independent contractor is a business owner. You run a business even if you are your only employee and you don't have a company name. There are significant differences, however, between a business that's just you as an independent contractor and running a company with employees and a registered name.
The contractor isn't an employee of the company but works independently. The contractor provides services to the client under an Independent Contractor Agreement.
Consultants who work for themselves are not employees. For tax purposes, they usually qualify as an independent contractor. This means that the client company who hires them to perform work does not have to pay for their benefits, unemployment or training.
Make sure you really qualify as an independent contractor. Choose a business name (and register it, if necessary). Get a tax registration certificate (and a vocational license, if required for your profession). Pay estimated taxes (advance payments of your income and self-employment taxes).
