Store description excerpt
Find out what you owe the IRS in about ten seconds — then see exactly how the number was built. Type three things: what you expect to earn from freelance work, what you'll spend on the business, and any W-2 wages. Freelance Tax Calculator returns an itemized receipt, not a black box: self-employment tax split into Social Security and Medicare, the half-SE deduction, your standard deduction, the QBI deduction, taxable income, and federal income tax — every line, every number, in the order the IRS builds them. WHAT YOU GET - Total federal tax owed, and your effective rate - "Set aside per month" — the number you actually budget against - Cents per freelance dollar — how much of each $1 isn't yours - All four 2026 quarterly payments with their real due dates - Your marginal rate on the NEXT $1,000 you earn THE NEXT $1,000 Most calculators tell you your average rate, which is useless when you're pricing a project. This one shows what happens to the next thousand dollars you invoice: how much you keep, how much goes to the IRS, and the real rate on that money. Use it before you quote. SAFE HARBOR, CHECKED FOR YOU Enter last year's total tax and the app applies the IRS safe-harbor rule — 100% of last year (110% if your prior-year AGI was over $150,000). If that's lower than this year's estimate, your quarterly stubs switch to it automatically, because that's the smaller number you can pay without an underpayment penalty. BUILT ON THE PUBLISHED 2026 FIGURES Tax year 2026 brackets, the $16,100 / $32,200 / $24,150 standard deductions, the $184,500 Social Security wage base, and the 0.9% Additional Medicare thresholds — all from the IRS inflation adjustments for 2026. The calculation engine is unit-tested, including guards that fail the build if a published figure is ever mistyped. NO ACCOUNT. NO BANK LINK. NO SUBSCRIPTION. Nothing is collected, nothing is uploaded, nothing is sold. There is no sign-up screen. Everything happens on your phone. Dark mode included. WHAT IT DOESN'T DO Federal only — no state or local income tax. Standard deduction only, no itemizing. Simplified QBI without the phase-outs that apply to specified service businesses above roughly $201,750 of taxable income. It's an estimate to plan and budget against. Estimates only. Not tax advice, and not affiliated with or endorsed by the Internal Revenue Service. Confirm anything that matters with a tax professional.
