Get your taxes done using TurboTax

@rlwremo  - one twist, it may turn out that the tax you owe is less than you think!  And it comes down to how big the difference was between your W-2 wages and the unemployment payments.  

 

your employer was withholding tax earlier in the year assuming that rate of pay would continue for the entire year.  But of course, it didn't.  

 

You could be in a lower marginal tax rate for the year but the W-2 wages earlier in the year were withholding assuming a higher tax rate.  

 

You'd have to work out an estimate to figure this out, but I wouldn't assume just because there was no withholding on the unemployment necessarily means there is a big tax bill coming - maybe and maybe not!
