How we treat assumptions

Early calculators will assume a single state of work and residence, standard withholding allowances, and a single filing status. Credits, deductions, pre-tax benefits, and local or municipal taxes will be excluded unless you explicitly add them in later releases.

Each tax year refresh will be configuration-driven so we can quickly apply IRS and state table updates without rewriting logic.
