Your employer had two options: 1. Show bonus as wages on W-2 and withhold SS tax, Medicare tax and income taxes. 2. Show bonus as extra income on 1099-misc. Now you will take care of your taxes yourself. Yes, you are not self employed but IRS requires that you report 1099-misc income on schedule C (Form 1040). Yes, you must report both the income on your tax return. 1099-misc income:You will report your income and business related expenses on schedule C or C-EZ (Form 1040). Then you put net income (or loss) on line 12 of Form 1040. This income is subject to SE tax at 15.3% (this is shown on line 57 of Form 1040). Your U.S. Tax Return: Tax Filing by Self Employed Sole Proprietor or Independent Contractor |
