Retirement tax questions

There are several possibilities for your state refund to be greater than anticipated. You may have paid in more estimated taxes than you were required or depending on your state you could have been entitled to some refundable tax credits.

 

Refundable tax credits are called “refundable” because if you qualify for a refundable credit and the amount of the credit is larger than the tax you owe, you will receive a refund for the difference.

 

For example, if you owe $800 in taxes and qualify for a $1,000 refundable credit, you will receive a $200 refund.

 

Check your entries to make sure they are correct.
