I have reviewed your federal return with the following results.
- If the rental is completely deleted from the return your refund changes only slightly. Your original number estimate does not come up or close to the actual results.
- With the rental activity in place the difference in refund is only $66 which is a direct result of the qualified dividends and capital gains worksheet.
- This makes sense because for every dollar added to income that is NOT capital gains eligible the tax will rise because more of the income is flowing to the tax table versus the lower capital gain rates.
- You may not have had all of your other income totally included or the calculations were not yet complete. I can't say exactly what happened on your end, but what I see are the correct results.
