Federal Income Tax Withholdings Calculator

How It Works

Federal income taxes are a percentage of all taxable income (wages, interest earned, capital gains, etc.) that must be paid to the federal government by businesses and individuals. If you work for an employer, a percentage of each paycheck is withheld to account for this throughout the year. At tax time, you’ll determine whether you owe more or have over-paid and get a refund. This calculator will help you determine how much is being withheld as a percentage and monthly dollar amount.
