    It comes down to Schedule C papers and then binding these to your 1040.
    If you have good online tax filing software (I use Taxslayer), or get your taxes done by a professional, this will be pretty simple.

    I wish that Top 10 Rekog that's floating around would expire already so I can stop getting excited every time someone returns it.

    I'm looking into a good pair of bluetooth earbuds or headphones. I want to go "true wireless" Ă  la the Apple AirPods, but the alternatives are terrible it seems. Even the new Bose ones are reviewing terribly.

    Like, this has to be a scam to get my SS#. I don't see what else it could be. I don't even know the name of the company or where they are located and I don't think they can legally have me as a W-2 employee because I don't have any dedicated hours and they have no way to track my hours, and I'm not being paid minimum wage nor having taxes deducted from my earnings with them. I don't even know where the company is located or if it's even in the US, hell, I don't even know the name of the company. I also just said "so what, you guys want me as an actual employee now?" This was the response:

    "You would still be an affiliate, that doesn't change anything, we just need that so nobody will need to pay taxes."

    ......That's not how W-2's or taxes in general work.

    Its very common for self employed people, they have to file and since they're paying you, this lessens their tax burden

    Exactly. I even told them "I am a contractor, not an employee. You have to give me a 1099 form." Because otherwise they need to be paying me an hourly or salaried wage that is at least minimum wage. And I don't think they are going to want to do that. I followed ,'s advice and grabbed an EIN number though, so I'll send them the form and see what happens I guess.
