Self-employment income. A person with income from Self-Employment files Refer to Tax Publication 334, Tax Guide for Small Business, for information. When there is no federal withholding taken out of your self-employment income, you may need to make quarterly estimated tax payments. This is done using a Form 1040-ES (PDF), Estimated Tax for Individuals. How Do I Pay Income Tax? Federal income tax is a pay-as-you-go tax. You must pay it as you earn or receive income during the year. An employee usually has income tax withheld from his or her pay. If you do not pay your tax through withholding, or do not pay enough tax that way, you might have to pay estimated tax. You generally have to make estimated tax payments if you expect to owe taxes, including self-employment tax (discussed later), of $1,000 or more when you file your return. Use Form 1040-ES to figure and pay the tax. If you do not have to make estimated tax payments, you can pay any tax due when you file your return. For more information on estimated tax, see Publication 505, Tax Withholding and Estimated Tax. http://www.irs.gov/publications/p334/ch01.html#d0e1246

When starting a new job, the form you complete to determine how much tax to withhold from your paycheck is called the W-4 form. This form allows you to indicate your filing status, number of dependents, and any additional amount you want withheld for federal income tax. Employers use this information to calculate the appropriate withholding from your earnings.


Where does the employer get the information used to determine the amount of federal income tax to withhold from employees earnings?

From the IRS. They have instructions and pay charts telling employers what to withhold depending on how much the employee makes, how often they're paid, and what the employee entered on their Form W-4. There are also charts for certain types of work, such as agriculture. If you use this information to figure out if your employer is withholding the correct amount, don't forget to take into consideration any pretax benefits you have, such as a flexible spending account, which are subtracted before calculating tax. States also provide similar instructions or pay charts for employers to determine how much state tax to withhold. (See related link below for the IRS Pub 15 for employer instructions for withholding federal tax.)
