self employment Creation
Answers
Self-employment is earning a person living through doing something by oneself. In case of business, self-employment is the process of earning living through using own capital or borrowed fund and also using one's own knowledge, intelligence, efficiency and taking a risk.
Generally, tax authorities will view a person as self-employed if the person chooses to be recognized as such, or is generating income such that the person is required to file a tax return under legislation in the relevant jurisdiction. In the real world, the critical issue for the taxing authorities is not that the person is trading but is whether the person is profitable and hence potentially taxable. In other words, the activity of trading is likely to be ignored if no profit is present, so occasional and hobby- or enthusiast-based economic activity is generally ignored by authorities.
