I was delighted to see my income tax refund was deposited into my bank account today. However, I do wonder about something.
How is it that my submission was basically the same as last year's....I made the same amount of money and deductions were the same BUT...........
My refund was less by more than 110% for federal and for state it was about 100% less than last year's refunds. My tax preparer is the same one I've used for 35 years and she's an expert at what she does.
I think I may have to give her a phone call and see if she has an answer for me but I have a feeling that the picture depicts it all. I suspect that once again us taxpayers have been screwed. At this point I'm just glad I was able to score a refund at all. sigh
