Rise of the Self-Employed Economy

A QuickBooks study in partnership with Emergent Research shows that full and part-time freelancers, independent contractors and on-demand workers are expected to account for up to 45 percent of the workforce by 2020 . This growth will be driven in part by an increase in the on-demand economy, like ride-sharing, peer-to-peer rental, project-based job platforms and online retail platforms.

Additional QuickBooks Canada research on this rapidly expanding demographic reveals that nearly half (47 per cent) of self-employed Canadians pursued that work because of a desire for greater work life flexibility, but the rise of self-employment is also a function of need. Forty-one per cent of self-employed workers are doing so to supplement income.

I have used a few Turbo Tax and others but found once I switched to a Mac the files were no longer held on my Mac. I don’t like that so I moved to Studio Tax as it all resides on my Mac. I did compare the results of Turbo Tax on my PC vs Studio Tax on my Mac and this one only test proved that Studio Tax gave me a lower tax bill.

QuickBooks Self-Employed is specifically designed to make it easy for these freelancers to manage business and personal finances, prepare for tax time throughout the year, and help meet compliance requirements.

“As the on-demand economy continues to expand, there will be unprecedented income opportunities for freelancers. But this work comes with a host of new challenges: co-mingled and confusing business expenses, quarterly and year-end tax headaches, and a general lack of visibility into their ‘real income’,” said Jeff Cates, president, Intuit Canada. “We’re thrilled to introduce the QuickBooks Self-Employed app, tailor-made to meet the unique financial management needs of this new type of entrepreneur operating in a new economy.”

Self-Employed Canadians Face Financial Challenges

The financial situation for the self-employed is often vastly different from traditional, full-time workers. This demographic must understand potential tax deductions, untangle integrated business and personal expenses and stay on top of record keeping. Accordingly, many are surprised by the amount of taxes they owe the government.

QuickBooks research shows that many self-employed workers are struggling to manage their finances:

• The biggest challenge of self-employment is not enough predictable income (59 per cent).
• Twenty-nine per cent of self-employed Canadians manually keep track of their finances on paper.
• Almost half (47 per cent) of self-employed Canadians said that financial management software would be helpful for their work.
• Two in three (66 per cent) of on-demand workers said a better understanding of their financial fundamentals would be helpful.
