Self-Employed & Freelancer Tax
Schedule C, SE tax, and quarterly estimated payments — handled for you
Why Choose This
Freelancing and self-employment come with unique tax challenges — from tracking business expenses to calculating self-employment tax and making quarterly payments. WeSaveTax's tax professionals handle your Schedule C, maximise your deductions, and keep you compliant with the IRS year-round.
Schedule C Preparation
We prepare a comprehensive Schedule C that accurately reports your business income and expenses, ensuring every legitimate deduction is captured — from home office to vehicle expenses, software subscriptions, and professional development.
Home Office Deduction
Our experts calculate your home office deduction using both the simplified and regular methods, recommending the approach that yields the highest tax savings based on your specific situation.
Quarterly Estimated Payments
We calculate your quarterly estimated tax payments (Form 1040-ES) and set up a payment calendar so you never miss a deadline or face underpayment penalties from the IRS.
S-Corp Election Analysis
For higher-earning freelancers, we analyse whether electing S-Corp status could reduce your self-employment tax burden and provide a clear recommendation with projected savings.
How It Works
From first consultation to final delivery — fully managed by qualified Tax Professionals.

Feature Deep Dive
Everything you need for seamless compliance
Self-Employment Tax Calculation
We accurately calculate your self-employment tax (Social Security and Medicare) on Schedule SE, including the deductible portion on your 1040, ensuring you do not overpay or underpay.
Business Expense Deductions
From advertising and office supplies to professional services and travel — we identify and categorise every legitimate business expense to reduce your taxable income to the fullest extent allowed by law.
Retirement Plan Advisory
We advise on tax-advantaged retirement plans available to the self-employed — SEP IRA, Solo 401(k), and SIMPLE IRA — and calculate the maximum contribution that reduces your current year tax bill.

For freelancers earning above $60,000 in net profit, we model the potential tax savings of electing S-Corp status, factoring in reasonable compensation requirements, payroll costs, and compliance overhead.
