“Only on the App Store”

Tax Year 2026 is a One-Time charge of $3.99!

Tax Years 2025 &amp; 2024 are FREE to use!

Note - States are slow to update their tax brackets.  If current-year state brackets are unavailable, prior-year brackets will be used until the state issues current-year brackets.

Federal calculations include:
- Ordinary federal income tax.
- Long-term capital gain tax.
- FICA tax.
- Self-employment tax.
- Self-employment tax deduction. 
- Additional Medicare (Self-employment only).
- Qualified business income deduction with threshold &amp; phaseout.
- Net investment income tax.
- Taxable portion of Social Security Income.
- Child tax credit with phase-out.
- Earned Income Tax Credit with phase-in &amp; phase-out.
- Standard deduction (including Age &amp; Blind increase - Federal Only).
- Displays marginal tax rate.
- Ability to manually add certain adjustments.
- Ability to run withholding/estimated tax payment projections.

State calculations include:
- Ordinary state income tax.
- Self-Employment Tax Deduction add-back - PA.
- Standard deduction, personal exemption, dependent exemption (does not include phaseout, but a few states do not calculate these based on a low-income phaseout).
- Federal QBI Deduction - CO, ID, &amp; ND.
- Taxable portion of Social Security Income state subtraction, if applicable in your state.
- Displays marginal tax rate.
- Ability to manually add certain adjustments.
- Ability to run withholding/estimated tax payment projections.
- Taxes Suck on most states calculates tax on state taxable income at ordinary state tax rates. This should overestimate taxes due if your state has favorable rates on certain types of income.
- I plan to add a more complete calculation for state income tax in the future, but I wanted to get the app released sooner rather than later, and I believe it gives a reasonable estimate for most people in its current build.

## Taxes Suck Reviews in United States

### ***** "Useful, confusing estimates part"
I found this app very useful to get a quick overview of my tax situation, it’s easy to use and includes helpful tips.

The one aspect I found confusing is the field “Projected Federal Tax Withholding” - I had expected that exactly this field is the output of the analysis: where am I projected to land and is this sufficient, based on my income details, tax status, and perhaps ability to enter additional withholding per paycheck. I’ve done the math myself, but would find it more intuitive if it calculated it for me.
-- justvivid, 2025-03-24

### ****- "Okay, if you don’t itemize. Tax caster better."

-- Cashflow48, 2024-10-08

### *---- "Ss tax and Medicare."

-- spatenchb, 2023-12-09

### ****- "Great app for a QUICK Fed &amp; State Tax estimate!"
At last, a simple FREE application for estimating both your Federal and State taxes without having to through hoops to input the most basic information. Very handy and will use every year!

The author actively updates it too!
-- JeannePhx, 2023-08-28

It’s about time someone made an basic tax estimator. Quite advanced. Developer’s website is actually a help (rather than a sales demo).
-- Review Writing Guy, 2023-04-30

### ***** "An easy to use, quick &amp; smart app"
Thank you for this tool, it’s easy to utilize and apply to many diverse potential projects. I’ve used this app for projections and end of year budgets. TKU.
