Basically, you and your business are considered the same thing. There&#8217;s no paperwork to file to create it. You simply start working and earning money as a contractor, and you automatically have a sole proprietorship.<\/span><\/p><p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Think of a sole proprietorship like this: you&#8217;re a painter and you start painting houses for money. You might call your business &#8220;John&#8217;s Painting,&#8221; but legally, there&#8217;s no separation between you (John) and your painting business.
