So! I just paid my taxes via turbo tax (against 2 accountants advice-they told me not to do them?). My club does not file 1099's for us. So basically after much research (this forum has been sooo useful!) I filed overestimating my income and underestimating my deductions. Last year was my first year dancing, I barely kept records, and had no idea I had to file four times a year. Luckily, common sense told me to put aside money for taxes so I could file this year. I based my income on rent, utilities, phone bill, gas, fees/tip out, and how much I allow myself to spend each month. The only problem I have is it was still really low for being a dancer, i dont make much though. I only do private dances for customers who I know well and trust, other than that it's only stage money and money for keeping customers company. I only work part time. I just love the stage part of dancing. My parents still file me as a dependent and they take care of me otherwise.
My question is how do you file estimated taxes? I have the forms based on my income being the same as this year but I have no idea how to do it myself. Does turbo tax have a program that lets you fill it out every three months?
Thank you!
