#72: Do you have to file taxes if you didn't earn any income?
Join Josh and Garrett as they discuss taxes! Specifically, taxes in the early stages of your business.
Top takeaways:
- The government considers you to have a business whether you see it as a side gig/little thing or not.
- If you have $1 more today than you did yesterday, you need to file (perhaps in your own Schedule C, but.).
- If you had expenses and no income OR expenses that were greater than your income, you should file (the losses could offset active income from other sources).
