Freelance Tax Deductions You're Missing (That $4,600 Adds Up)

Описание: You're probably overpaying the IRS — not from a mistake, but from a blank line.

Freelance tax deductions explained: the ones you know but underuse, the ones
that actually surprise people, and the single deduction most freelancers skip
entirely — worth up to $13,000 off your taxable income.

This video covers:
— Why every missed deduction costs a freelancer 28–40 cents on the dollar
— The home office deduction most people calculate wrong (the fix takes 5 min)
— Software, equipment, meals, and phone: what counts and what you're skipping
— Section 199A / QBI: the deduction introduced in 2017 that most solo
freelancers still aren't claiming
— The three-part capture system that stops you from losing deductions at tax time

If you work for yourself — designer, writer, photographer, developer,
illustrator — this is the freelance tax guide that starts with the math,
not the jargon.
