Questions
Can a 1099-K amount differ from my net earnings?
Upwork says that its 1099-K reports total payments. Your tax records can need other information to show net earnings.
What if I do not receive an Upwork tax form?
Use your own records. Upwork says that U.S. freelancers must report income even if Upwork does not send a 1099-K.
Does this page give tax advice?
No. The calculator is an estimate. A tax professional can help when you need advice for your situation.
