The most important form is your estimated income tax form. It, plus your estimated taxes, must be filed and paid quarterly, with the IRS.

Actually moved to the Nursing Entrpre. forum, where you will find the answwrs that you are looking for. You will need to get set up as a business first, before you do anything. Do you have a tax advisor so that they can tell you the best route or avenue to follow for you?

Thanks Suzanne. I kind of battled this one in my head a bit.

There are sample contracts you can find on the web if you spend alittle time searching. If you want to independently contract - just yourself - you do not have to file the business entities.

If you want to get into the agency end - then - you need to file the business aspect. You will need workers compensation, liability, contracts, attorney, cpa, staff for on call hours and money to pay the nurses of course. Charges vary per contract but are usually double - some one and 1/2 times the amount of the pay the employee receives - depends on the market and the facilities.
