W-2 employees have taxes withheld by their employer, who also pays half of Social Security and Medicare taxes. 1099 contractors are responsible for the full self-employment tax (15.3%) and must make estimated quarterly tax payments.

Increasing pre-tax contributions to a 401(k) or HSA reduces taxable income and lowers the amount withheld for income tax. Adjusting W-4 withholding allowances can also increase each paycheck if overpayment has been occurring.
