If you are running your own business or are planning to, you should know all you can about the self-employment tax deduction, which can save you a lot of money if you do.

All you have to do is your own personal Social Security number as your company's tax identification number and then make sure you file under a Schedule C or Schedule C-EZ and you are all set to start benefiting from the deduction.

There is however a difference between Schedule C and Schedule C-EZ and the benefits they can provide you with in terms of taking advantage of the self-employment tax deduction. The EZ form should only be used by those who have a smaller amount of expenses and end the year with a substantial profit.
