It is hard to tell why you might owe more this year without being able to look at your return. Here are some of the common reasons :
- You didn't have enough taxes withheld from your paychecks.
- You lost a dependent.
- You changed your filing status.
- You did not qualified for the full amount of the Child Tax Credit. If you don't have any Tax liability you will only receive the additional Child Tax Credit.
- You didn't qualify for the Earned Income credit.
