A Simple Tax Withholding Checkup Before Year End

A withholding check can catch a surprise bill or refund while there is still time to adjust future paychecks.

A year-end withholding check helps catch a possible tax bill or oversized refund while there may still be time to adjust upcoming paychecks.

Use the federal tax withholding calculator with current-year pay information. If you receive non-employee income, compare the estimate with a 1099 tax calculator so self-employment income is not left out.

For a broader filing view, a 1040 tax calculator can help organize income, deductions, and tax before the return is prepared. Use current documents and update the numbers as new forms arrive.
