Anyone worried about tax season this year?
I'm worried that we are going to owe more than we will be able to pay

We don't claim DH's daughters, and I cashed bonds to pay for Cailen's daycare. We are pretty much screwed.

We got screwed this year. Last year we got back a few thousand. This year we owed a few hundred. Paychex screwed us though because I selected Married, but withold at higher single rate on my W4 and they were witholding at the married rate.

Re: Anyone worried about tax season this year?
We are going to owe thousands that we don't have because of these savings bonds I cashed. Which we don't have - I need to set up a payment plan. I'm gonna cry I hope it's not as bad as I'm anticipating

Bonds are tough. My dad cashed in bonds each of the last few years and that really changed his situation.
I think this year he broke even, but he claims single 0 so he was already paying a ton of taxes.

It's always a cr@p shoot for us - depending on how they've reclassified DH's funds. We almost always get a lot back.
Now that they've made it a K fund, going forward we are completely screwed after this year. Anytime he's out of work, any money we take out is out of his retirement fund- so it's interest & penalities.

Re: Anyone worried about tax season this year?
We went and had ours done today. We owe about $500. Not horrible, but not a joy either. Especially with me being unemployed right now, this isn't great timing. Thankfully we have it in savings.

Re: Anyone worried about tax season this year?
Nope. I get 87,000 tax free in the US and I don't make that much, so I am not concerned. DH's pay isn't included in our taxes, b/c he is not a US citizen. I pay taxes over here and I will not get a money back in the US. If I made over $87,000 then I would be really mad b/c I would get taxed in two countries. I will get no money back in the US, which is fine with me, but I am happy that I don't have to pay.

I am. I'm not sure that I really have any reason to, but I am still freaked out.
