i bet most people on here are at 0, most people i know at my job are. you need to change your checks from '0' to '1', so you get bigger checks all year and a smaller 'return'.

its like my dad says, theres nothing heroic about getting a tax return :heh: you're loaning the government your money all year at 0%
Facts.

I claim 1 or 2 and still get a little refund sometimes.

For my last check of the year I do 5 and get an extra 200-300 just because :heh:

I generally look at it in face value without running the numbers but here is how we get taxed using the numbers in OP.
Let's say you make 100K you'll pay
952 on your first $9,525 (10%)
3501 on $38,700 (38,700 - 9,525) so you get taxed 12% on 29,175
9636 on $82,500 (82,500 - 38,700) so you get taxed 22% on 43,800
4200 on $100K (100K - 85K) so you get taxed 24% on 17,500

So you'll pay 18,290 in taxes if you make a 100K

This isn't factoring in the standard deduction of 6K or 12K which would reduced your taxable income from 100K to 94 or 88K.

nah thats not how it works, i see other ppl in here making this assumption and i was wondering how to clarify it. this is a good example

so you make 40k, then you get taxed 12% on the first 38. you only get taxed 22% on the remaining two grand over 38k

matter of fact i think this cuts your taxes :ehh:
You did it wrong.

Subtract whatever going towards retirement. That’s a deferred income. Let’s say $3k

So, it’s down to $37k now subtract the standard deduction of $12k which brings it down to $25k and 12% of that gets taxed and since it’s a progressive tax so add 10% of the first bracket which is $925.50.

Take that 40k deduct 12 for the standard deduction so u have 28k in taxable income
First 9000 taxed at 10% the rest at 12%


** Can someone explain how this is a significant tax cut? I swear mine would be the same. Ill make about 62k this year. Filing single.

Thnks
