Quarterly Estimated Taxes

At YM TAX CPA, we help individuals, self-employed professionals, and business owners accurately calculate and pay their quarterly estimated taxes to avoid penalties and interest.

Whether you’re running a small business, earning freelance income, or receiving investment returns, our team ensures you stay compliant with IRS and state requirements while minimizing your tax burden.

What Are Quarterly Estimated Taxes?

Quarterly estimated taxes are advance payments made to the IRS (and sometimes state tax authorities) throughout the year to cover your tax liability.

If you expect to owe $1,000 or more in taxes when filing your annual return — and your income isn’t subject to withholding — you are generally required to make these payments.

This applies to:

  • Self-employed individuals
  • Business owners
  • Investors with significant dividend or capital gains income
  • Freelancers and independent contractors

Why Pay Quarterly Estimated Taxes?

Making timely estimated tax payments helps you:

  • Avoid IRS penalties and interest
  • Manage cash flow more effectively
  • Prevent a large year-end tax bill
