Agreed it is a lot of tax, but it has nothing to do with Obamacare. I did a workup of his situation in my own TT H&B and was taxed $151 federal and $388 SE tax, $539 total. Because he is claimed on someone else's tax return he only gets a standard deduction of $1050. Is that about what you get? Did he incur any expenses to earn this income? 10% on federal, 15.3% on SE tax. Sorry~~~~~
