Free tax tools for the self-employed
Quick 2026 estimates for freelancers, 1099 contractors, and gig workers, no signup required.
Not sure which to use? Start with the 1099 tax calculator for your full federal bill (self-employment tax plus income tax). Use the self-employment tax calculator if you only need the 15.3% Social Security and Medicare portion, the quarterly calculator to size each estimated payment, and the refund estimator to see whether you will owe or get money back. Every calculator uses the latest 2026 IRS figures and is a federal estimate, not tax advice.
