What do creative people need to know about the differences in tax laws between gig workers and employees? How much should you be saving in self-employment tax? How has the landscape changed in the current economy?
Hannah had two messages growing up: "Do what makes you happy!" and "Art won't make any money." How did that and her other experiences as an artist help her translate design needs into practical commercial benefit? They also talk about the stimulus bills and payments, deductions, and what you can look forward to in July if you have children.

Hannah goes through specific information about the unemployment taxes affected by this retroactive legislation. Hannah covers what you need to know about filing, whether you have already filed your 2020 taxes or whether you have not filed yet. She goes through a few scenarios to show how much you can save depending on your current tax rate and whether more than one person in your household was collecting unemployment last year.
Here’s what Hannah has to say:
What the tax savings is on $10,200 of unemployment income (thanks Democrats!), and a shoutout to those of you who called, texted & knocked to get out the vote--you had a hand in this tax bill that will lift 50% of American children out of poverty and take a meaningful step towards guaranteed income for families with children. You made a difference. Americans (of all parties) will benefit from your work! Thank you!!!❤️🇺🇸
