As a cosmetologist receiving a 1099 and having taxes not withheld from my paycheck, how do I determine how and where to pay my taxes, and how much I need to save from each paycheck?

Can an individual give a 1099 to another individual and take the deduction for it on taxes? If an individual paid $8500 to help him do a job, how would he get the deduction? This individual is a W2 employee, but he had to pay another person $8500 in the course of getting the work done, for which his employer did not pay. How would he go about claiming that expense?

I started an LLC last year and filed form 2553 to change to an S-Corp, but mistakenly made the filing retroactive to 2014 instead of 2015. I didn't pay taxes, receive a W-2 salary, or take any deductions. Is there a way to change this to remain an LLC, and if not, what are my options for filing?

I am an Independent Contractor who spent $550.00 to file my taxes last year because they charge by the form, and I had 23 companies I worked for. Is there a way to file my taxes cheaper, especially since I own my own company and had a baby last year?

I have a small business on my home property and want to deduct my mortgage interest on Schedule C, Form 1040. If I have a business loss, does this change the amount of mortgage interest I can deduct? Additionally, if an accountant incorrectly filed my taxes without using Form 8829, does this increase the likelihood of an audit, and can the IRS retroactively correct and charge for previous years' filings?
