泥潭有很多预估税的讨论。这里提供一个DP,演示用Form 2210计算逾期罚款。
2022税 37K
2023税 40K
2023预扣税(withholding) 23K
Safe Harbor test 1: 23K < 37K x 110%. 想挂壁,就得填表!
Safe Harbor test 2: 23K < 40K x 90% - 1K. 想挂壁,就得填表!
2023应预交税款 >= min (37K x 110%, 40K x 90%) = 36K
常规:用每季度平均收入和平均预扣(全年除四)。IRS可以给你寄账单,不用填表。
挂壁:如果预估+预扣与收入正相关, 用每季度实际数字会降低罚款。
(1) 计算每月的收入和预扣税。
(2) 敲黑板,丢分点!一年分四段(3,2,3,4)。 不是(3,3,3,3)!
计算收入(1-3月)50K(1-5月)120K(1-8月)190K(1-12月)260K
(3) 计算每季度应预交税款: Q1 7K; Q2 10K; Q3 9.5K; Q4 9.5K.
(4) 每季度预估(精确到天)+预扣: Q1 6K; Q2 6K; Q3 15K (6/17/23);Q4 21K.
(5) 计算罚款 (10/1/23开始8%年利率):
Q1 = (7K – 6K)x (6/15 – 4/15)x 7% / 365 = $10
Q2 = (7K + 10K – 6K – 6K)x (6/17 – 6/15)x 7% / 365 = $2
知错就改, 尽早补齐。常用报税软件都能填2210表, 就是统计月收入花些时间。
挂壁填表,选PART II C and/or D.
C. Your income varied during the year and your penalty is reduced or eliminated when figured using the annualized income installment method. You must figure the penalty using Schedule Al and file Form 2210.
D. Your penalty is lower when figured by treating the federal income tax withheld from your income as paid on the dates it was actually withheld, instead of in equal amounts on the payment due dates. You must figure your penalty and file Form 2210.
好了。泥潭首帖。想来年老色衰,流落泥潭,身无所长,唯半裸DP博一众白嫖眼球。惨。
