How unfortunate that you did not notice no tax being withheld on your pay all year. But now you owe. Change your W-4 for 2017!! If the amount you owe is really bad, you can arrange a payment plan with the IRS.

There is nothing that can be done for 2016. You will just have to pay whatever tax is due plus any penalties and interest for underpayment. You can correct that for 2017 by submitting a new W-4 with your employer to have tax withheld.
