Get your taxes done using TurboTax

@psylok1 Sadly, if no tax was withheld and you owe, then you will need to pay the amount owed, regardless of whose "fault" it was that no tax was withheld.     It does seem off that you say you made about $28,000 and owe nearly $3000, however.    If you are single and earned about $28,000, your federal tax due should be about  $1600---not the $2.9K you mentioned.   Are you sure you entered the information from your W-2 correctly?  Better check it all carefully.   Or do you also owe the state?   Was no state income tax withheld either?
