I saw this recently on Detroit Free Press – Gig workers to get hit with big tax surprise next year: https://www.freep.com/story/money/personal-finance/susan-tompor/2021/09/23/1099-k-tax-forms-gig-work-irs/8213011002/. Longer article. For contract workers, which many gig workers fall under, it’s important to keep good records of earnings, qualifying expenses, etc.

Detroit bass player Grover “GT” Tigue knows too well about the wildly varying rhythms of the gig economy.
Tigue has been a musician 24/7 for the past 21 years — working on solo projects and playing over the years with groups including the No Boundaries Quartet, a hip hop group called Mama SOL & Tha N.U.T.S and an R&B funk band called Funkilinium.
