If the independent contractor doesnt provide you with Form W-9 you must withhold tax from payments to that person. This is referred to as backup withholding and should be withheld at the rate of 24% and then submitted to the IRS. Form 945 will also need to be filed to report the withheld tax.
Independent contractors generally report their income on Schedule C (Form 1040), Profit or Loss from Business (Sole Proprietorship). Also file Schedule SE (Form 1040), Self-Employment Tax if your net earnings from self-employment are $400 or more.
