Yeah, it’s a shit show over here. You kinda guess at how much you will need to pay in taxes, hold back that amount in your paycheck, and hope for the best. And if your life situation changes or the incoming government fucks around with the tax codes, your estimating will be off. Getting it down to a very small refund is the optional solution, but it’s not always as easy as you’d think.
I’m not sure how withholdings works for your paycheque, but you request where the number is set.
You define what’s accurate for a percentage when you set it.

A lot of things suck, but setting up your withholding is easy, and in 30 years of paying taxes, I’ve never accidentally withheld too little.
