What are Quarterly Taxes & Who Owes Them?
Quarterly taxes are payments made by self-employed individuals or business owners to the IRS four times per year. This is a way for individuals or businesses to pre-pay a portion of their taxes so they don't have to pay a large lump sum at the end of the year.
Generally, any self employed individual or business that expects to owe more than $1,000 in taxes for the year will need to make quarterly tax payments.
What are the Quarterly Tax Due Dates?
The due dates for quarterly tax payments are April 15th (Q1), June 15th (Q2), September 15th (Q3) and January 15th (Q4). However, don’t feel pressured to remember these – We’ve got you covered with our FREE quarterly tax calendar that takes the weight of remembering deadlines off your back (phew!). Keep in mind that if a deadline lands on a Sat, Sun, or holiday, it’ll move to the next weekday.

What Doesn’t the Tax Calculator Include?
Tax Credits
At times, tax credits may be based on your personal circumstances. For example,
- Had a baby
- Bought a home
- Went to school
To provide you with the most accurate results, we would need to inquire more information from you. However, for the ease of use and speedy calculations, we’ve left them out of our tool. If you’d like additional help, you can contact us!
