Wait… I have to pay taxes on that?
TikTok paid you. Amazon paid you. A brand sent money, products, or a 1099. Now everybody has an opinion about what the IRS gets.

HI, I'M TAX DAD
I'm Drexell King, CPA.
But online, I'm Tax Dad.
I started Tax Dad because too many people feel embarrassed to ask tax questions or get answers that sound like they were copied from an IRS manual.
I've spent more than 25 years in accounting and tax. My job is not to make you feel small. It's to understand your situation, do the work correctly, and make taxes less scary.
“You are allowed to ask questions. You are allowed to need an explanation. And yes, we can figure this out.”

The stuff people
are afraid to ask.
If you were wondering, somebody else probably was too.
Do I need an LLC to deduct business expenses?+
No. You do not need an LLC just to report creator or self-employment income and claim legitimate business expenses.
What if I made money but never received a 1099?+
You still report your income. Tax forms help with reporting, but they do not decide whether the income is taxable.
How much should I save for taxes?+
There is no magic percentage that fits everyone. Your other income, state, deductions, and total profit all matter. We can calculate a number based on your situation.
Can you help if I am behind on my returns?+
Yes. We start by figuring out which returns are actually required and what records are available, then build a practical plan.
