asked on

W2 or Corp-to-corp

Hey guys,

The employer asking what do I prefer - W2 or Corp2corp.  I assume Corp2corp same as 1099?
So can anyone tell me the quick pros and cons and what should I choose?
I am single no family, if that's matter. Own a property.. Please advise.
 
Thanks in advance!!

I assume you are talking about working as an employee or working as a self-employed business. Depending on tax laws and employment laws where you live, there may be other factors in this choice (the need to have multiple employers (clients), the need to provide your own equipment (PC, phone), the need to set or negotiate your own hours and so on). Where I am, working for one employer only makes you an employee by definition (tax law, employment law, insurance law). These are the factors you need to consider.

Yes, I am in US.  Thank you for the tip!
If you have one employer, going W2 will save substantial complexity (I am an incorporated business, and it is much more complex). ... Thinkpads_User
I see.  In this case its just myself.

True, and that is what I was pointing in my first post and later about the complexity.

So with 1099 I can also deduct my work expenses (mileage, gas, office upgrades, etc etc.)  Now it got me curious the difference between corp2corp and 1099.
