Work a seasonal job or only work part of the year

Use the IRS Tax Withholding Estimator to do a Paycheck Checkup¶
The IRS Tax Withholding Estimator helps figure out if you should submit a new Form W-4 to your employer or make estimated tax payments to the IRS before the end of the year.
Have your most recent pay stub and federal tax return on hand.
The estimator’s results are only as accurate as the information you enter.
