The typical flu season lasts from fall to early spring, but the length and severity of an epidemic may vary, as the dominant strains of flu change from year to year. Some lucky individuals can get through the season flu-free, but be prepared to be surrounded by sneezing and coughing for a few months out of every year.

You can use the Withholding Calculator found on www.irs.gov.
