for taxes? Do you do a percentage? Or set amount?

Keep all your DC related receipts. I do not set a certian amount aside, each yr I say I will but have not. We have been able to get a small refund each year so far. -
If you keep receipts of everything you purchase all yr. - I always get money back as well. I guess it really depends on your spouse and what he has taken out as well though.
Good Luck!!!!Comment

We do keep all receipts for food and supplies but I'm sure it's not going to be enough...or at least it wasn't last year!!Comment

I always get a refund. But if you find that you owe at the end of the year, I would put away between 15 and 20%.Comment

Social security is .062% so if you make $1800.00 a month take that xs .062 that would be 111.60; medicare is .0145 again what you make xs the .0145. Then find out what tax bracket you are is, if 20% tax bracket then take your total earnings, so if you make a steady income of $1800 every month, that comes to $21,600.00 take that xs 20% that would come out to be $4320.00 to pay into taxes. That is then remember state taxes as well, what I would do is pay in about $1500 and then rest send to federal.
You account should be able to tell you how much to pay in.
Good luck.Comment

My plan is save half of what ever I make will be set aside into savings, just to cover myself until I figure it out and get some sort of baseline set for the next year.Comment

Yeah my accountant said to put away 20% of income AFTER deductions. I was spending more than I was making for my first 8 months though so I don't have a penny put away
****s when it takes a while to fill spaces!!! But hopefully that'll mean a return in April!

just a quick thought, you mentioned you are all ready full, based on that financial information can you could give your accountant that number and then do an estimate of how much in deducations to give you a better ball park to set aside......
also on a side note do you know what the difference is between tier one and 2 in the food program?Comment

This is my first year doing my daycare taxes..I am just curious how much you made to get money back, if you don't mind me asking. It would be just be filing because my fiance and I are not married yet, yet own a house together...I have added up what I have made this year and it is around $14,000 without any deductions.. How much do you pay quarterly? I know with deductions I will be in the poverty level so I was told I won't have to pay anything, sorry if it's a stupid question, it's my first time doing small business taxes...Comment

I am in TN an was told this:
T-1 Breakfast $1.19 Snack .66 Lunch $2.21
T-2 Breakfast .44 Snack .18 Lunch $1.33
And they told me if 50% of the kids in my area school are on low income (food at school) then I would be in T-1 and if if was at 51% I would be T-2. So I called a sponser and she said i had to come to the office for a 6 hour class
. I do not have anyone to watch my daycare children. So I decided not to enroll. HTH

this is my first year, so I didn't make much $$, I opened in April, didn't fill a single spot til may, and wasn't full until July, then I lost a kid in August. I lost money in 2010 due to all the start up costs, so I'll be getting a refund this year.
I was told that filing schedule C type stuff makes you more prone to audit, so make sure you document everything! I'm kinda freaked out but I think I documented everything correctly!Comment

Food Program payments
You are making a mistake not to enroll in the Food Program. For every full time child you care for you can expect to get either $500 or $1000 per child per year from the Food Program. That's worth spending 6 hours at a training and paying for someone to watch the children.I am in TN an was told this:
T-1 Breakfast $1.19 Snack .66 Lunch $2.21
T-2 Breakfast .44 Snack .18 Lunch $1.33
And they told me if 50% of the kids in my area school are on low income (food at school) then I would be in T-1 and if if was at 51% I would be T-2.
