This calculator is for general informational and estimation purposes only.

No tax advice: The results produced by this calculator do not constitute tax advice, legal advice, financial advice, or any other form of professional advice. Pocket CPA LLC is not providing tax preparation, tax planning, or consulting services through the use of this tool. No CPA-client relationship, attorney-client relationship, or any other professional relationship is created by your use of this calculator.

Estimates only — not a guarantee: All figures produced by this calculator are estimates and may differ significantly from your actual tax liability. The calculator uses simplified formulas and does not account for all provisions of the tax code, including but not limited to: the Alternative Minimum Tax (AMT), phase-outs and income limitations on deductions and credits, the Qualified Business Income (QBI) deduction, passive activity loss rules, at-risk limitations, foreign tax credits, earned income tax credit, child and dependent care credit, education credits, the kiddie tax, net operating losses, installment sale income, deferred compensation, stock option income, retirement plan distributions, and numerous other provisions that may materially affect your actual tax liability.

2026 standard deductions — One Big Beautiful Bill (OBBB): The standard deduction amounts used in this calculator reflect figures established under the One Big Beautiful Bill (OBBB), enacted in 2025: Single/MFS $16,100 · MFJ/Surviving Spouses $32,200 · Head of Household $24,150. Tax bracket thresholds reflect the official 2026 figures published by the IRS in Revenue Procedure 2025-33. Other indexed figures — including contribution limits, NIIT thresholds, and Additional Medicare Tax thresholds — may differ from final published amounts. While bracket thresholds and standard deductions are now official, this calculator still does not account for all provisions of the tax code. Results remain estimates only.

Federal only — state taxes not included: This calculator computes estimated federal income tax only. It does not calculate state income tax, local income tax, state-specific deductions or credits, or any other state or local tax obligations. Depending on your state of residence, your total tax liability may be substantially higher than the federal estimate shown here.

No liability: Pocket CPA LLC, its owners, employees, agents, and affiliates expressly disclaim any and all liability for any errors, omissions, or inaccuracies in the calculator results, and for any actions taken or decisions made in reliance on those results. Under no circumstances shall Pocket CPA LLC be liable for any direct, indirect, incidental, consequential, or other damages arising from your use of or reliance on this calculator. You use this tool entirely at your own risk.

Consult a licensed professional: Your actual tax situation is unique. Tax law is complex, frequently changes, and is subject to interpretation. Before making any financial or tax-related decision, you should consult with a licensed Certified Public Accountant, tax attorney, or other qualified tax professional who can evaluate your specific circumstances and provide advice tailored to your situation.
