@bray49-
for 2021, I can see that your taxable income is almost all wages as I can look at a tax table and come pretty close to $9222 in taxes
but for 2020, I can't. Does the 2020 income have a large capital gains component? did you report capital gain on the sale of that house.
So in effect, while you incomes appear to be the same on the surfuce across the two years, you worked a lot more in 2021 vs 2020??????
the capital gains would be taxes at a lot lower rate than the wages...and when you do the math, 2020 would come out with a lower overall tax than 2021..
Suggest comparing your W-2s from 2020 and 2021 - is there a significant difference?????
