Hi, I was wondering if anyone can help .... I work as a FedEx Ground Driver and my employer does not take taxes off my checks .... He's paid me like $20,000 this past tax year ..... Does anyone know if I'm gonna owe a lot ... and if so, is there any way to reduce the amount atleast .... Thanks

Is there a Government site you can look at which will help you gauge your tax due?

If he's not taking any FICA taxes out of your checks, that probably means you are registered as an independent contractor. If this is the case, at the end of the year you will receive a 1099 form and be responsible for paying back about 15% of your overall income toward SS and Medicare.

This does NOT include any other income tax you may owe.

And, if I remember the U.S. tax brackets correctly, an income between $8,000 and $32,000 requires a 15% tax on your annual income.

Unless you have any expenses to write off, you're looking at around $6,000 in taxes.
