About

I run SelfEmployLab, free tax calculators and state-by-state tax guides for US freelancers and 1099 contractors. I check every number against IRS and state sources and show the math. Not a CPA. Always happy to hear what calculator freelancers wish existed.

SelfEmployLab - Free tax calculators built for US freelancers

Seven free calculators for freelancers and 1099 contractors: self-employment tax, quarterly estimated taxes (with the safe-harbor minimum and due dates), how much to set aside, S corp vs LLC, 1099 vs W-2, hourly rate and home office. Each uses current IRS figures and shows the math. Plus tax guides for 49 states and a 50-state take-home pay study. No sign-up.
