Many businesses wrongfully classify employees as independent contractors. The IRS has very specific guidelines that define the difference between an employee and an independent contractor. While it might seem like a good idea to use independent contractors and avoid the payroll taxes, if you have any doubt you should consult with a competent tax attorney or CPA.

Independent Contractor Agreement Frequently Asked Questions

What should be included in an independent contractor agreement?

The scope of the independent contractor agreement depends entirely on the complexity of the job being performed. Hiring a landscaper is a lot less complicated than hiring a consultant who might have access to highly sought-after company secrets. At the very least the agreement should outline the type of work being performed, the compensation for the work, and a deadline for the task(s) to be performed.

What is a 1099 independent contractor agreement?

A 1099 independent contractor agreement is a legally binding contractor between a company or individual and the person being hired. The agreement outlines that the person will not be an employee but rather working on his or her own as directed by the company. This type of agreement is often used when hiring persons working remotely or who aren’t required to work at a company-provided location.

All payments made as a result of the independent contractor agreement will be reported to the IRS on a 1099 form. In contrast, employees receive a W2 outlining the pay as well as the tax deductions withheld by the company.

Why do I have to fill out a W-9 form as an independent contactor?

The W-9 form is required by the IRS. You must fill out the form to provide your personal information to the person hiring you as an independent contactor. The W-9 is extremely easy to complete. For all practical purposes you’re simply providing your name, address, and social security number (or EIN) so the payments can be reported to the IRS.
