Hey! So I had a question, on the top it says I owe a certain amount of “federal tax due” but it doesn’t show a amount if I will get anything refunded back. Does anyone know if I will get anything refunded back or I have to pay the owed amount & then wait for it to show the amount I will get refunded?

    If it says "Tax Due" you are not getting a refund.   That means you did not pay enough or have enough withheld during the year.   Or it could mean you made a mistake or did not enter everything yet.   We cannot see your tax return---we do not know what kind of income you entered.    And....did you go all the way through the Federal Review section?   You MUST go through that section.

     

     If you have federal tax due you can pay by mailing your payment with the 1040V voucher, (which has the address printed on it, having the payment taken out of a designated bank account, or you can pay directly on the IRS website.

    You must pay your state tax due using the state’s preferred method of receiving payment.  For most states that will be by making a payment to the state’s own tax website, or by mailing a check or money order.

    Thank you! So even though I paid taxes & owe very little I won’t get a refund for the amount I did pay?

    Sorry----no.   Not everyone gets a refund.   Refunds are the result of paying in MORE than your tax liability and/or the result of being able to receive certain refundable credits.
