You worked for a company as a freelance construction worker. you earned $15,000 for the two months that you worked with them. the next month you received a 1099-misc for your work. based on the amount of money that you made, was the company required to withhold taxes? why or why not?

answer:

step-by-step explanation:

employers are not required to withhold federal income tax from non- employees except in special circumstances. the only circumstance is when the irs requires backup withholding : if the non-employee has not provided a taxpayer id number   or if the taxpayer id number is missing or the irs sends a notice to the payee requiring that backup withholding begin.
