Sample data, shown live: Tax Alarm as a paycheck arrives: the year is worked out again, a chart draws what will have been withheld by December against the year's tax, the amount owed in April is shown, and the fix: more withheld from each paycheck on line 4(c) of the W-4.

Tax Alarm finds the exact extra withholding for each paycheck, from your real salary.
The fix, to the dollar.Move it, and see April change. Give your employer a new W-4 and the bill is covered.
Sample data, shown live: the W-4 fix: a slider for the extra amount withheld from each paycheck is moved to Tax Alarm's amount, line 4(c) of the W-4 fills in, and April's bill turns into a small refund.
