The whole quarterly payment thing is insane to me - you basically just blindly send the city money without filing anything at all. Then come tax season is when you actually figure out if you overpaid or underpaid. I switched jobs last year and Job 1 was NOT taking the money out, but then Job 2 was. so I had half a year I had to figure out lol

Funnily enough, you have to do the exact same thing if your self-employed or otherwise don't have your federal taxes withheld. Just send them money every quarter. (there is a form to help you estimate it since federal is more complicated, but you don't file the form, just send the money with a little piece of paper saying how much money you're sending) Had to do it for my first year filing taxes and it def stressed me out.

lol yeah it also stressed me out not having anything to go along with the money I was sending. Just here ya go, here's a few thousand bucks hope it's what I owe. But at least now my new job is taking it out so I won't have to worry about it in future years. My old job couldn't even get me in the right state, I wasn't going to attempt to have them add the city tax on too lol
