Question about Tax deductions

Hi Mwashy0109,

The most accurate method is to use:

IRS Tax Withholding Estimator

https://www.irs.gov/individuals/tax-withholding-estimator

Use this tool to:

  • Estimate your federal income tax withholding
  • See how your refund, take-home pay or tax due are affected by withholding amount
  • Choose an estimated withholding amount that works for you

Results are as accurate as the information you enter.

What you need:

  • Paystubs for all jobs (spouse too)
  • Other income info (side jobs, self-employment, investments, etc.)
  • Most recent tax return.
