With the high cost of health care, business owners need to ensure that they are maximizing their deductions by implementing the right steps to claim 100% of their expenses incurred for healthcare. You are eligible to utilize the self-employment insurance premium deduction on your individual income tax return (Form 1040). 

 Most people are unaware of another type of tax return fraud, where the tax preparer files a return on your behalf, but claims inflated personal or business expenses, false deductions, unallowable credits or excessive exemptions. 

Self-employment tax can be a nightmare for owners of limited liability companies (LLCs) and independent contractors. During tax season, they incur a larger than expected tax bill due to self-employment taxes. LLCs are the most common form of business because they are easy to establish. If one person owns an LLC, it is referred to as a single member LLC (SMLLC).
