Alabama Self-Employed Tax Preparation

Alabama has a state income tax, so most self-employed residents file both a federal and an Alabama return each year.

Prepared by real tax specialists — with Enrolled Agent or CPA review when your return calls for it.

If you freelance, contract, or run a small business in Alabama, your 1099 income is generally subject to both federal self-employment tax and Alabama state income tax. We help you report business income, claim eligible deductions, and stay current with quarterly estimated payments.
