With New Tax Law, You May Owe in April
Submitted by Moneywatch Advisors on July 6th, 2018
I recently completed the IRS On-line Calculator and was surprised to find we are scheduled to owe tax in April because we are under-withholding. With the federal tax law changes, many middle-Americans will see their taxes decrease this year. When the IRS directed employers to change withholdings to the new tax brackets, however, many of us saw a bump in our paychecks in February. As a result, you may be under-withholding and would benefit from taking 15 minutes to check. Don’t worry, it’s surprisingly easy.
