So I just got a letter on the Georgia Department of Revenue website. When I clicked on it, it said they had changed my tax form. Originally we were supposed to get a decent refund, and now they're saying I owe almost $1,200. WTH?! I've cut and pasted the body of the letter below. It looks like our tax liability is $1159.00, and they're not showing that they actually withheld $2067.00 from wages (even though I just checked, and it's on my federal return AND W2 forms. Of course I'll call them in the morning when they open, but what the heck is going on here?? What even is the prepayment credit?
