About the Self-Employment Tax Calculator
Freelancers often forget self-employment or income tax until filing season. This calculator gives a planning estimate for US SE tax (~15.3% on most net earnings) plus a rough federal income tax sketch, and a simplified Pakistan income-tax estimate.
Always treat results as educational. Tax law changes and your situation may differ — talk to a tax professional.
How to estimate tax
- Choose United States or Pakistan.
- Enter net or taxable freelance income.
- Review the breakdown and save notes for planning.
