I started the safe harbor method this year. I have some withholding from my pension. I took that into consideration and had a withdrawal at 100% withholding for the difference to get to 100% of last year’s taxes. In my case, it works the same way for the state so I did the same there.
My income is stable enough now that this will work just fine. If I ever have a large swing in my income, I would do more to calculate my estimated taxes. If I’m going to owe more money, I’m not worried about that. I’ll just pay it in April. But, if my income decreases significantly, I’d consider doing a smaller withdrawal/withholding.
