Sanity Check of my return.

[daviddugger]

I have Adjusted Gross of $26,500, Taxable Income of $10,800 and a fed tax of $5,100.  This doesent seem correct.  Am I thinking wrong?

are you self-employed? 

[Opus 17]

If you are self employed, then all your net business income (profit) is subject to 15% self employment tax.  Then, your taxable income (after the standard or itemized deduction, dependents, and credits) is subject to income tax  (10-12% in your case).
