I actually received my 1099 on time this year. It only lists my "base pay." I'm responsible to include my dance money and tips on my return. But my question is...do we pay SE tax on our tips in addition to our lap/vip dance money?

Yes, the tips are part of your income from your self-employment and will be subject to S/E tax. Even W-2 employees who receive tips have to pay FICA and Medicare on them.





OIC. Just always on the lookout for the ever illustrious loophole!
