Hey all!
First off, let me say sorry because I have not been active on these forums in a LOOOONG time. Between school and work...i hardly have the time. Thankfully...I'm still alive!
Anyways, onto my question. I'm starting another web site shortly...a blog site similar to engadget.com. I want to "hire" free-lance writers and I'd pretty much pay them on a per-article basis (something like $20 or so per published article). Anyways, I need to learn the legal mumbo-jumbo behind this if there is any. Do I even have to report anything to the government or is it simply up to whomever is receiving the money to report this on their taxes? I just need someway to get "clearance" before I even think of paying people because I don't want to get in trouble.
Thanks!!!
