Alright now we’ve got that out of the way, let's go ahead and dive in by defining what is a 1099 worker and what is a W2 worker.
So, what is a 1099 Worker?
A 1099 worker - or also referred to as an independent contractor - generally provides specific services as defined by a written contract.
Freelancers and consultants are often declared as an independent contractor and thus are self-employed. So they are business owners themselves who likely work with multiple clients.
Independent contractors have complete control over how they execute your contract.
So if they wanted to hire a team to help then they could… so basically they control their own profits and expenses.
Now usually, a business will engage with an independent contractor for a specific period of time and with a specific contract.
But that engagement can be renewed as many times as the businesses would like.
So take your time and watch this entire video to get some game-changing information. '

How to Hire a 1099 independent contractor ? Documents needed and a list of process? 5. Can the 1099 IC work in the same building as the employer ?

    Usually for 1099 all you do is pay one flat fee and you're off the hook. No different than paying a third party company to do work for you and charge you for it. W2, you usually pay 6% of the employee taxes, insurance and additional payroll fees.

    You will get paid the exact amount your owed with a W-2 everytime. With a 1099 so many things can switch up on payday. Sometimes you might not get paid at all working a 1099.

They have a sole proprietor as well as a company but want to sub contract I would love to have them in my team but I’m kinda confused on how this all works
