We have payroll deduction here, but it does not include things like interest income, stock sales/dividends, rental property, etc. Additionally, this year's taxes were made more unpleasant by the Republican tax reform, which was accompanied by revisions to the withholding tables used by employers, and which for most people resulted in additional sums owed. My wife and I ended up owing about $3500 over and above what was deducted from our paychecks.
