What is estimated tax/estimated tax payment?

Modified on Wed, 24 Jan at 12:35 PM

Estimated tax payments are payments made on income that was not subject to income tax withholding. The IRS requires that taxes be paid as you earn or receive income. Failure to pay this on time may result in penalties and you’ll need to mail in or make a payment directly to the IRS online.

 

On the other hand, withholding is withheld automatically from your income.
