The gubberment should have kept tax witholding the same and given all the clueless larger tax refunds. There is no possible way to communicate to the clueless about the income tax system. Key points from the article: "We spent a lot of time explaining to people how their taxes were reduced in the prior year, but they still owed more on April 15," said Edward J. Reitmeyer, CPA and regional partner-in-charge at Marcum LLP. If you were already withholding less tax from your pay - either because you had itemized deductions in previous years or you claimed multiple exemptions for your dependents - you likely paid too little in tax during 2018 and wound up owing in April 2019. This confounded taxpayers, as they measured the success of the new tax law based on whether they had bigger refunds. "The biggest way the new tax law was botched was the failure to communicate the difference between a lower tax liability for the year versus lower tax bills in April," said Jeffrey Levine, CPA and director of financial planning at BluePrint Wealth Alliance. |
