About This Calculator
As a 1099 contractor or freelancer, understanding your tax obligations is crucial for financial planning. Unlike W-2 employees, independent contractors are responsible for paying both the employer and employee portions of Social Security and Medicare taxes, known as self-employment tax.
Our 1099 tax calculator accounts for all the major tax obligations you'll face: federal income tax using 2024 tax brackets, state income tax (if applicable), and the 15.3% self-employment tax. It also considers valuable deductions like the Qualified Business Income (QBI) deduction, which can reduce your taxable income by up to 20%.
Remember to set aside money for quarterly estimated tax payments, which are due April 15, June 15, September 15, and January 15. Underpaying can result in penalties, so accurate estimation is essential.
This calculator provides estimates only. For specific tax advice, consult a qualified tax professional familiar with self-employment income and deductions.
