    Ok im a affiliate for a company that's in Canada and im in the USA. Over the last 2 months i have earned $11,000 but the company does not offer 1099 forms because there in Canada so the taxes are different out there. Considering im beginning to earn a great amount, id like to pay taxes every 3 months. I want to keep it legal.

    How do i go about doing my taxes if they dont send a 1099 form? Do i simply save my check stubs and let them see the totals that i have earned and have them tax me on that? I invest about $50 a day in Google Adwords which totals out to about $1500 a month.

    Im sure there are many affiliates who live in the USA but the affiliate company is outside the USA.

    Congratulations on finding a nice program. Paying your taxes every 3 months will be required so it is good that you want to do it that way. :)

    As an affiliate you are now a self employed person and are responsible for your own record keeping. Read this article and I will answer any questions you have in this thread. I have been a business and filing my own for well over 20 years.

    So I think I can get you started on the right footing.
