Each quarter, a self-employed individual who has elected coverage under Title 50A RCW will report to the department wages equal to the combined total of:

(1) The self-employed individual's net income related to their self-employment; and

(2) The gross amount of wages, if any, as defined in RCW 50A.05.010, paid to the self-employed individual from the self-employed individual's business entity.

Example 1: A sole-proprietor selling crafts online earns $3,000 in a quarter and incurred $2,000 in business-related expenses. The individual would report $1,000 to the department for that quarter.

Example 2: A member of a limited liability company pays herself a salary in the amount of $10,000 in a quarter. She also takes a draw from her company in the amount of $5,000. She would report $15,000 to the department for that quarter.
