I just finished my taxes and I'm not happy with the results.
For federal I am only getting back about $100 more than last year. I'm disappointed only because I left my withholdings at 1 for longer than I did the year before so I expected a little more of a refund. However at the same time I worked a side job that barely taxed me so it makes sense.
For state, ugh I owe! This is the first time (aside from when I was an independent contractor) that I've had to pay! Last year my return was only $18 so I was anticipating cutting it close once again. I did not expect to have to pay $172!
I'm going to go over it again later but if I do have to pay you can bet I won't be turning it in until I get my federal back.
Taxes done.
