starting as independent contractor/need help!
Subject: starting as independent contractor/need help!
I'm going to be able to return to work very part time since my disability is getting a bit better. I have an offer to work as an independent contractor, probably not making more than 12 grand per year.
This will be my first time being a contractor and I'm boggled after reading the IRS info on the site. Do I need to file for a taxpayer ID# or can I just use my Social Security number? I think I can wade through paying the taxes, etc, but may have an accountant do this initially.
Thank's in advance, Becca.

Sometimes they say "levocurvature" instead of "levoscoliosis" because the curvature may be caused by the way the patient is positioned. The doc may be reluctant to diagnose a scoliosis on the basis of just one study.

consistently makes up his own drugs. He also makes up his own words. If I hear the non-word "equivocable" one more time, I am going to scream. He's a great dictator as far as being clear speaking, he just likes to improvise on his words a bit. Not fun for me.
THANKS!

dictating a medicine of Xanax 20 mg t.i.d. I'm only an MT, not a pharmacist, but 20 mg sounds awfully high, especially when the doses are usually in the 0.5 to 2 mg range. I checked and it comes in 0.25 mg up to 2 mg. I'm just wondering if I should put a QA marker here and ask them to double check or if I should just type what I hear and let it go through. Has anyone else heard of somebody being on this high of a dose of Xanax before? Thanks!
