I now have two people working as contractors that I 1099 and I havent paid my taxes since I started. I have quite a savings built up 65k, but have yet to file any taxes and have made 0 in tax payments. I know Im in deep and need to get out NOW. Please help.  <response>: When I was 18 I worked a for a company that was 1099ing Me I found out it was illegal and that they were paying absolutely 0 in taxes. I reported him to the IRS. He is now completely bankrupt and I am still getting letters about progress on the case.Get this fixed ASAP before you get screwed.The fact that you are using 1099 forms on you employees tell me that you knew all along that you were avoiding taxes
