Federal Income Tax <\/strong><\/span><\/h1>\n

Withholdings & Estimates Check-Up<\/strong><\/span><\/h1>\n

W-4 & Form 1040-ES Review<\/span><\/h2>\n

We announced in our May 30, 2018 post<\/strong><\/a> that the IRS had updated its W-4 calculator<\/strong><\/a> on its website<\/a>. The updated IRS tax tables for withholding are designed to increase a taxpayer\u2019s take-home income during the calendar year. While this is a good thing, taxpayers who are use to overpaying during the tax year and receiving a nice federal income tax refund when filing their tax return in April may be unpleasantly surprised when filing their 2018 Form 1040.<\/p>\n

Due to the change in 2018 tax withholdings, some taxpayers with a history of receiving refunds may find themselves owing the IRS come April 15. The good news is that you can take action now to determine your year-end result with respect to whether you receive a refund or have a balance due.<\/p>\n

Planning TIP<\/u><\/strong><\/span>:<\/p>\n

Taxpayers with withheld federal income taxes (W-2 jobs, 1099-R pension distributions, Social Security earnings, should contact their tax professional to determine if withholding changes need to be made.<\/p>\n
