## What is 1099 Quarterly Tax Estimator?

Freelance tax, without the spreadsheet.

Log income. Know what to set aside. Never miss an IRS deadline. Built on
the safe harbor rule: pay 100% of last year's tax across 4 payments
(110% over $150K AGI) and the IRS won't penalize you — we calculate that
number in 60 seconds of setup.

FREE FOREVER — no trial, no card:
• Your quarterly set-aside number (safe harbor or income projection)
• Every IRS deadline with a countdown
• Three factual reminders per quarter (2 weeks, 3 days, due day)
• Your state's own deadlines when they differ from the IRS — Virginia asks
  by May 1, Delaware April 30, Hawaii on the 20th, Iowa at month end
• A set-aside tracker: what you have put away against what this quarter
  needs, and roughly what share of each payment gets you there
• A one-tap link to pay on IRS.gov when the quarter comes due
• Income log with CSV import — paste straight from your invoicing app
• We tell you if you are under the $1,000 federal threshold, where the IRS
  does not ask for quarterly payments at all
• Year overview with paid/upcoming status

PREMIUM — pay the least you legally can, and know what April holds:
• What to set aside from each payment — not a flat rule, but the real tax
  that payment causes. Past the Social Security cap the rate drops sharply
  and a flat rule keeps over-saving your money
• What April actually looks like: safe harbor stops the penalty, not the
  bill. We show it building up on income you have already been paid — a
  running total, never a forecast
• Your household, not just your invoices: a spouse's salary, withholding
  and a retirement contribution each move what you owe by thousands
• Your state's tax folded into every quarterly figure
• The state rules that change what you owe: California splits the year
  30/40/0/30 instead of four equal payments, and the point where a state
  starts asking varies — South Carolina at $100, New York at $300, while
  the IRS waits for $1,000
• Income by client: who paid what, how many entries, and what share of
  your year each one is
• How much you can put into a retirement plan: your SEP-IRA and solo
  401(k) room worked out from your own profit, and what each contribution
  takes off this year's bill. For most freelancers a solo 401(k) allows
  far more than a SEP — and nobody tells them
• A year-end pack for your accountant: income by client, every payment
  with its confirmation number, estimated vs actual, Schedule C basis —
  one PDF you can send
• CSV export as a real file you can share
• A home screen widget: your number and the countdown, without opening
  the app

We only cover a state once we have checked its rules with that state's own
tax authority. Every income-tax state except Connecticut is covered today —
40 states plus DC. If yours is not, the app says so and does not charge you
for it. Idaho and Utah do not ask individuals for quarterly payments at all,
and we say that instead of showing you deadlines that do not exist.

Why trust it:
• 2026 IRS numbers verified against irs.gov and ssa.gov (Rev. Proc.
  2025-32); updated every December
• Everything stays on your device — no account, no bank login, nothing
  leaves your phone
• Deadlines follow the IRS rule for weekends and holidays and are checked
  against every date the IRS has published since 2016

This isn't a filing tool. We estimate what to set aside and remind you
when it's due; your accountant or filing software handles the return.
Estimates only — not tax advice.

## Version history (last 2 releases)

### 1.1.0 — 2026-09-15

The biggest update since launch.

PAY THE LEAST YOU LEGALLY CAN
• What to set aside from each payment — the real tax it causes, not a flat
  percentage. Past the Social Security cap the rate drops sharply
• How much you can put into a SEP-IRA or solo 401(k), worked out from your
  own profit, and what each contribution takes off this year's tax. A solo
  401(k) usually allows far more than a SEP
• Your household: a spouse's salary, withholding, a retirement
  contribution — each moves what you owe by thousands

KNOW WHAT APRIL HOLDS
• Safe harbor stops the penalty, not the bill. See yours building up on
  income you have already been paid — a running total, never a forecast
• We now tell you when you are under the $1,000 federal threshold and do
  not have to pay estimated tax at all

SEE THE WORK
• Every line of the calculation, traced back to the 2026 IRS tables
• Your state's own rules in your own dollars — California asks 30/40/0/30,
  not four equal payments
• Income by client: who paid what, and what share of your year each is

STAY ON TOP OF IT
• A set-aside tracker: what you have put away against what the quarter
  needs, and one tap to add to it when you log income
• A home screen widget with your number and the countdown
• Pay on IRS.gov straight from the app when the quarter is due

FOR YOUR ACCOUNTANT
• A year-end PDF: income by client, every payment with its confirmation
  number, estimated vs actual, Schedule C basis
• Record the confirmation number when you mark a quarter paid, so you have
  proof if the IRS ever asks

Deadlines now follow the IRS weekend and holiday rule for every year, not
just the ones we had listed.
