You would have to file self employed. The IRS has basic tax tables to use were you can figure up what tax bracket you will be in by how much you make. You can pay the IRS through out the year to avoid a big tax burden at tax time.

hopefully you make money in your business..you will need to file a return for the business..you have to otherwise you would be breaking tax laws and the irs and/or state tax authorities will eventually want it + interest + penalties..the first step is to understand that you will owe taxes on your profits..i assume the business is profitable..
i don’t know if you need a dba ( doing business as ) entity to file the return. you have to check with the irs or some cpa website or irs.gov filing a business return should be done by a prefessional cpa. some people do it themselves. some prefer the peace of mind of having the return prepared professionally. i lie in the second camp. so tally up your total sales for the year, your expenses by category and go see your accountant. if you don’t have one, try the big franchises like h&r block. they have competitive tax preparation fees for smaller business and individual they’d like to have as long term customers. it’s essential you file because if one year you have a net loss, then you get tax breaks for the following year. good luck.

Be sure you kept all the receipts for everything you purchased related to your business. Keep receipts for any expenses (shipping you paid, etc.).
Keep detailed records of the payments you received. You must keep these all year long.
Then you complete Schedule C to figure the amount of profit/loss you claim on your income tax form.

Unless you are considered an employee and taxes are taken out (which probably will NOT happen), you’d file that income as self-employed using a schedule C or C-EZ, and a schedule SE. Keep good records of any income and associated expenses.
Income tax will be calculated the same as if you were an employee. You’ll also be paying self-employment tax, which is for social security and medicare – you’ll pay a higher rate than an employee though, since you’ll have to also pay the employer’s half – it will work out to around 14% for that in addition to whatever income tax you owe.
You should also make quarterly estimated payments using form 1040ES since taxes won’t be withheld from your paychecks.

I would say your best bet is to find your self an accountant that specializes in home business tax stuff…
There are such accountants and only they know the correct way to go about things. As just a regular accountant or cpa does not know all the stuff involved with home biz deductions and right offs etc…
There is a lot of info and help available to people involved with home biz’s… as long as you have attempted to make money with a home biz, then you stand to gain in one way or another…
I highly suggest finding someone who specializes in home business tax stuff…
Maybe begin with an online search, or look in your phone book etc….
Good luck to you!
