What Can I Write Off as a 1099 Contractor?
Short answer: The biggest 1099 write-offs are vehicle mileage, home office, phone and internet share, equipment and software, health insurance premiums, retirement contributions, and half of self-employment tax.
Everything goes on Schedule C. You need receipts and a business purpose, and you should pay quarterly estimates since nothing is withheld.
Records to keep: Keep receipts, statements, and a simple log of business purpose; compare itemizing to the standard deduction each year.
