In Galveston, there are many different tax pitfalls for the self-employed at both the Federal and State levels. Society of Wealth provides effective financial representation for all industries and income levels. Whether you are dealing with income from consulting, real estate, construction, or the gig economy (Uber/DoorDash), we take time to thoroughly understand the facts of your business operations so that we can present them in a way that puts you in the best possible position.

Here are a few of the types and descriptions of Self-Employed Tax challenges this office can help you with:

• Schedule C Filing: In Galveston, this is the form where you report profit or loss. Mistakes here—such as mixing personal and business expenses—are the fastest way to trigger an audit.
• Self-Employment Tax (SE Tax): In Texas, this is the 15.3% tax that covers Social Security and Medicare. Many new business owners are shocked by this bill; we help you plan for it so it doesn't ruin your year.
• Estimated Quarterly Taxes: The IRS requires you to pay as you go. If you missed a deadline, you are likely facing penalties. We can help calculate safe harbor amounts to stop the bleeding.
• Home Office & Mileage Deductions: In the gig economy, these are your biggest tax shields. However, the IRS scrutinizes them heavily. We ensure your logs are bulletproof.

Self-employment tax issues may come with other charges or consequences, such as the IRS reclassifying your business as a "hobby," which disallows your loss deductions. Depending on the unique, specific facts of your case and your record-keeping history, our Galveston, TX Tax Firm has the ability, experience, and skill to potentially get your penalties waived or your deductions approved.

At Society of Wealth, we know that an audit is more than an inconvenience. Self-employed tax errors can have a major impact on every aspect of your life, from your ability to get a mortgage to your personal credit score, and can even cost you your business.

Incorrect Schedule C filings can potentially lead to thousands of dollars in back taxes, depending on the deductions disallowed and the level of negligence. Also, any tax debt that remains on your record could potentially inhibit your ability to secure business loans. Even if you aren’t audited, overpaying your taxes means you have less capital to reinvest in your company.

Our self-employed tax experts will work to get the best possible resolution for you, from finding missed startup costs to fighting to prove your travel expenses were necessary. Society of Wealth understands that you have a business to build, and we are dedicated to protecting that future with efficient, effective tax preparation for Galveston entrepreneurs.

Being flagged for an audit while working for yourself in Galveston can be especially complicated. How you handle this situation greatly impacts the outcome of your case, including your ability to keep your doors open.

First, keep your mouth shut—Don’t Talk To The Auditor Alone! It can be hard to resist explaining your side of the story, especially if you feel like you were honest. Resist this urge!

You are not obligated to explain your business model to an IRS agent without representation. It is common for auditors to attempt to get as much information from you as possible. They can and will use the information they obtain from you against you. For example, if you casually mention you "sometimes work from the kitchen table," they may use that statement to deny your entire Home Office deduction.

Remember, the auditor is allowed to make estimates if your records are messy. They can reconstruct your income based on your bank deposits, often counting personal transfers as taxable business income. They may try to trick you into admitting that business trips were actually vacations. Do not provide consent for them to interview you, or grant them access to your home office without a professional present.

The sooner you speak with an experienced self-employed tax professional in Galveston, the better.
