As a Mary Kay Independent Beauty Consultant or Independent Sales Director, you are the sole proprietor of a business and are considered to be a self-employed or an independent contractor for federal income tax purposes under the Internal Revenue Code Section 162.

 

The law requires the MK Company to issue a Form 1099-MISC to any Independent Beauty Consultant who, during a calendar year, orders more than $5,000 in wholesale merchandise or receives $600 or more in commissions, prizes or awards.

​

Preparation fee begins at $250*

 

*Having disorganized tax records will result in a higher price. Well-organized tax documents call for less summarization and management, therefore bringing tax preparing fees down. A good rule of thumb: The more organized you are, the less work that has to be done, the lower the cost will be.
