1099 Tax Basics for Freelancers

If you are paid $600 or more by a single client in a calendar year, they are required to send you a 1099-NEC at year end. Keep track of all client payments throughout the year so you can verify the amounts match when you receive your 1099 forms.

You are responsible for paying self-employment tax (Social Security and Medicare) on your 1099 income. Track your earnings by client in Eonebill so you have a clean record at tax time. You do not need to charge or pay sales tax on consulting and professional services in most states.

Pro Tips

  • Reference specific services, dates, and matter or case numbers on every line item — vague descriptions like 'professional services' are the single most common cause of delayed payment in professional service billing
  • For retainer clients, send invoices on the same date each month without exception — predictability in billing builds trust and makes it easier for clients to budget and approve payment quickly
  • For regulated professions — law, medicine, accounting, financial advisory — ensure your invoice format and terminology comply with your state licensing board's billing requirements
  • Include a brief plain-language description of what each service accomplished for the client (e.g., 'Prepared and filed Q1 payroll tax returns') — outcome-oriented descriptions reinforce value and reduce disputes
