Tutors are independent contractors and not employees or agents of Pear Deck Tutor; therefore, you are responsible for all tax withholdings.

Pear Deck Tutor does not provide tax, legal, or accounting advice. You should consult your own tax, legal, and accounting advisors. Pear Deck Tutor sends you payments via PayPal, and PayPal sends all necessary tax documents (including 1099-K). We do not send you a 1099 or any other tax form and have no control over that timing.

You can learn more about PayPal’s policy regarding who is sent a 1099-K for taxes.
