Withhold more in taxes, get more back. Some people play this game. Many people claim zero dependents to get more back. Paychecks are bigger because less taxes are taken out now. My plan is not to get a big refund. For the average worker, you pay less in federal taxes.

DogfatherMike I'm getting double earned income tax credit. Weird. More money this year than before... Guess Trump wasn't kidding.

Just got my taxes done, getting back DOUBLE what I got last year, thank you GOP GOPChairwoman realDonaldTrump

It wouldn't be that hard, with today's technology, to setup an account that automatically drafts a certain amount every payday into an account that you can totally drain every year in April. You don't need to lend your money to the federal government at 0% interest.

In other news, home sales tank and car sales plummet. Trickle, trickle.

Yay! Smaller refund. Republicans duped our dope-in-chief into a tax cut for their wealthy donors, and screwed average Americans out their hard-earned money. VoteThemOut in 2020! HouseGOP SenateGOP HouseDemocrats SenateDems

The debt is enormous. Hopefully it goes to that.

Not this filer

Definitely less this year. Almost 60% less.

Money come! Money go!

Yeah, we're paying for the billionaires. ThanksTrump DumbAsshole

Anyone surprised? All the Trump GOP tax reform did was redistribute the tax burden by shifting away from fatcats and downward in hierarchical orders of economic class. It was trojan horse politics. How did Ajay Kapur put it in the Citigroup memo: bang the drum for plutocracy

Bad news for Trump supporters and so-called middle class Americans.

It wasn't like we were all not warned. The whole premise of the tax cuts was to put money into taxpayers hands when they get paid, not when it is refund time. I expect my return to be smaller than in previous years.

this will be the end of the gop in 2020

SALT is the main problem for people in high tax states.

This will really hurt the economy

My 'Taxes' done $$$$$$ Refund!!!!!!

Smaller refunds but paying much less throughout the year.
