IRS Withholding Calculator

---

If you are employed, the Withholding Calculator can assist you in determining whether you should submit a new Form W-4, Employee's Withholding Allowance Certificate, to your employer. This helps in avoiding over-withholding or under-withholding of Federal income tax from your pay.

Who Can Benefit From The Withholding Calculator?

• Employees seeking to adjust their withholding to decrease their tax refund or balance due.
• Individuals whose situations are not accurately represented by the paper W-4 worksheets (e.g., those with multiple jobs, couples where both are employed, individuals eligible to file as Head of Household, and those with several qualifying children for the Child Tax Credit).
• Employees with non-wage income exceeding their adjustments and deductions, who prefer to have taxes on that income withheld from their pay rather than making separate payments through estimated tax procedures.

Tips For Using This Program:

• Keep your most recent pay stubs accessible.
• Have your latest income tax return available.
• Estimate values when necessary, understanding that the accuracy of results depends on the information you provide.
