    Whether you receive a refund or not depends on whether you had taxes withheld or paid estimated taxes.

    A 1099 is just a statement of income from sources other than a regular salary. When you prepare your return you total up all your sources of income. You then apply deductions, credits, etc. to determine a net taxable income. From there you calculate your tax liability. That number is then applied towards any prepaid or withheld amounts. If your liability is less than you paid you get a refund. If its MORE, you have to pay.
