I received payments from the previous employer as a result of employer/employee arbitration. Part of the payment was a W-2 payment and tax was withheld from this portion. The other part was a 1099 payment and there was no tax withheld. My question is, do I need to calculated estimated tax on the 1099 portion of the payment and pay estimated tax in the year I received the settlement? Or I only need to make the tax payment when I file tax return in the following year?
