Stressless Taxes for Artists, Creatives, and Freelancers
About the event
Banish tax fear and get ahead with tips from this presentation on taxes for creatives and freelancers. Learn about what income is taxable and which expenses are deductible for self-employed creatives/artists. We will focus on the Schedule C form, and cover hobby losses, home offices, self-employed health insurance, the new deduction for tips, record keeping requirements and any updates to the tax code for the most recent year. A Q&A will follow the presentation.
