The Withholding Calculator doesn’t request personally identifiable information, such as name, Social Security number, address or bank account number. To help protect against having too little withheld in 2019, taxpayers should check their withholding again early in 2019. If taxpayers don’t submit a new Form W-, their withholding might be higher or lower than intended. A mid-year withholding change in 2018 may have a different full-year impact in 2019. This is especially important for taxpayers who reduce their withholding sometime during 2018.
Taxpayers who change their withholding for 2018 should recheck their withholding at the start of 2019. Taxpayers whose personal circumstances change during the year should return to the calculator to see if their withholding should also be changed. Withholding Calculator results depend on the accuracy of information entered. To use the Withholding Calculator, taxpayers should have their 2017 tax returns and most recent paystubs available to determine their proper withholding for 2018.Ĭhecking and adjusting withholding now can prevent an unexpected tax bill and penalties next year at tax time. The tool allows taxpayers to enter their expected 2018 income, deductions, adjustments and credits – including the Child Tax Credit. The Withholding Calculator is an accurate, simple way for most taxpayers to determine their correct withholding amount. Waiting means there are fewer pay periods to withhold the necessary federal tax – so the change in withholding from each remaining paycheck will be much greater. The IRS encourages all taxpayers to complete a “paycheck checkup” now so that if a withholding adjustment is necessary, there is more time for withholding to take place evenly during the rest of the year.
