Does anyone know of an easy way to estimate my Federal Tax withholding on each paycheck? I've used the IRS.gov calculator twice now, and it came up with 2 different amounts on the W4's.
After submitting the 1st W2 to my employer, I was giving too much. Now after the 2nd time I submitted my W4, I'm not paying enough taxes. I just want to break even for the year. No refund; No payment.
Does anybody have another option that easy to use? thanks.

Thanks. I tried it before and I got a completely different withholding amount than the IRS.gov calculator. I'll try it again.
But the IRS should make it easier for us! Like once you know what your tax liability will be, for the year, you simply say give them a form that says, take this amount from each paycheck! (X amount times 24 pay periods etc.! or X amount for the year, divided by X amount of paychecks etc.)
and by the way, the TurboTax W4 Withholding calculator is currently for 2019! Not 2021
