Description

As we approach 2026, its crucial to review your paycheck withholdings early in the year to avoid tax surprises. For your 2025 taxes due in April, use free tax software to estimate your bill and make adjustments before the year ends. Many Americans lack basic tax knowledge, leading to unexpected bills. To avoid this, aim to withhold enough taxes throughout the year to minimize your April payment. Free tools like Outlook Taxes, Intuit TurboTax, TaxSlayer, H and R Block, or AARP can help you estimate your tax bill. If you anticipate owing more, consult a financial planner. In the final weeks, consider deferring a bonus, maxing out a traditional IRA contribution, or purchasing necessary equipment to reduce your tax bill. Checkout Solipillow.com
