Who needs 2009 estimated tax:

1. Self-employed individuals: If you were self-employed during the tax year 2009, you likely need to pay estimated tax. Since self-employed individuals do not have taxes withheld from their income, estimated tax is necessary to ensure you meet your tax obligations.

4. Individuals with irregular income: If you had irregular income during the tax year 2009, estimated tax may be necessary. This could be due to factors like seasonal work, freelance projects, or significant fluctuations in income throughout the year.

Overall, anyone who expects to owe at least $1,000 in tax for the year and does not have sufficient withholding may need to pay estimated tax for the year 2009. It is advised to consult with a tax professional or refer to IRS guidelines to determine if you specifically need to pay estimated tax for that particular year.
