Working on a 1099 contract for a U.S. company

Hello all,

I am not currently living in Germany but would soon, I am working online with a 1099 contract for a US based company, so I work at home and online. Once living in Germany, I am wondering how I am supposed to be dealing with taxes and health insurance etc...

As far as I read and understood, I have to get a private insurance, on average, do anyone knows how much it will cost me, also how do the taxes applie to my case, do I have to register as a freelancer or as a self employed? if yes could I take off the taxes thing such as my internet connection, part of my rent etc... ?

Any advises and piece of information would be highly appreciated...

I would truly appreciate if anyone could answer me or give me some hints... please!?
