How do I figure my taxes for my side gig?

The following is the general “safe harbor” rule:

 

You must pay estimated tax for 2023 if both of the following apply.

  1. You expect to owe at least $1,000 in tax for 2023 after subtracting your withholding and tax credits.
  2. You expect your withholding and tax credits to be less than the smaller of: 
    1. 90% of the tax to be shown on your 2023 tax return, or
    2. 100% of the tax shown on your 2022 tax return. Your 2022 tax return must cover all 12 months.

 

Note: If your AGI for 2022 was more than $150,000 ($75,000 if your filing status for 2023 is married filing a separate return), substitute 110% for 100% in (2b)

Am I required to pay quarterly taxes?  I didn't know I was required to so I haven't done so.

@justiceseeker2001 while it is 'not required', there can be interest penalties if you owe more than $1000 on April 15.
