Get your taxes done using TurboTax

Once the Spring semester is complete and you then get Fall work assigned, the best practice would be to project your total income for the year.  You can see the total Federal taxes withheld for Spring and then adjust based on what you expect total year taxes to be.  If your employer is under withholding based on certain assumptions during the Spring, you can go online in December and make an estimated tax payment (make sure it is being apllied to the correct year).
