W-2 Employees with Side Hustles: Do Not Get Surprised by Taxes

W-2 Employees with Side Hustles: Do Not Get Surprised by Taxes

Many Port Washington residents work full time while earning extra income from freelance work, contract jobs, or services such as DoorDash, Uber, Instacart, tutoring, or consulting. If you receive both a W-2 and a 1099, your tax return may require additional forms and careful reporting.

Side income is taxable even if it is part time or seasonal, and many workers are surprised to find they owe additional taxes because no withholding was taken out. Our licensed Enrolled Agents and Certified Public Accountants help you report W-2 and 1099 income accurately, track eligible deductions, and avoid unexpected penalties or surprises at tax time.

We also assist with common deductions related to side income, including mileage, supplies, home office expenses, and business use of your phone. When reported correctly, these deductions may reduce your taxable income and potentially increase your refund.

If you would like to understand how both W-2 and 1099 income affect your tax return or need help organizing your documents this season, we are here to help. We work with taxpayers throughout Port Washington and Nassau County.
