1099 Tax Preparation in Miami

Miami’s gig economy is massive. Freelancers, rideshare drivers, independent consultants, content creators, and contract workers all over Miami-Dade are earning on 1099s — and most of them are leaving money on the table at tax time. Florida’s lack of a state income tax simplifies things compared to other states, but your federal return still needs to be right. That’s where we come in.

The Miami 1099 Landscape

If you’re getting paid on a 1099-NEC or 1099-MISC, you’re self-employed in the eyes of the IRS. That means you owe self-employment tax on top of federal income tax, and nobody’s withholding anything for you. A lot of people in Miami find this out the hard way in April when they owe thousands they didn’t plan for. We set up quarterly estimated payments from the start so you’re never blindsided.

Because Florida has no state income tax, your filing is federal-only — which keeps things cleaner. But you still need to track every deduction, report every income source, and file on time to avoid penalties.
