Taxes are paid quarterly, you can use tax filing software to help with this.

Yes you can claim expenses

You're taxed in the year when you receive the $$, not when it's earned

You don't need a "PTO fund" you should just budget based on the average days you plan to actually work and get paid. You should have or build an emergency fund as well.

Thanks! For tax filing software, is that like TurboTax (or similar?) I’m already familiar with TT so that seems less daunting. And I do that in March, June, September, and December?
