Most Americans will find that they are going to get a tax refund this year. If you are expecting a refund, you are probably going to file your taxes as soon as possible. Do you want to know how much you refund is going to be? There is an easy way to estimate what your tax refund is going to be for this tax year.
Find Your Last PaycheckIf you are unable to wait until your W-2 comes out to file your taxes, or at least to calculate what you think your refund is going to be, the best thing to do is to find your final paycheck of the year. It will show you how much you have earned and it will show you how much you have paid in state and federal taxes. This will be your base to start calculating.
Have Tax Tables And A Calculator HandyIf you like to do your taxes by hand, have the 2011 tax tables handy and your calculator. The first thing you want to do is to take your gross income and first subtract 5,800 for your standard deduction. Subtract your personal exemption of 3,700 dollars after that. Then, you want to subtract any other deductions such as student loan interest, or mortgage interest.
You will now have what is considered your taxable income. Consult your tax tables to see what tax bracket this puts you in and what percentage of that taxable income you have to pay as tax. Once you have that number, you subtract any federal tax that you have paid already throughout the year. Repeat this process for your state taxes as it will differ in terms of deductions and percentage you have to pay.
Don't Be Afraid To Use Tax SoftwareAssuming that the tax software has been upgraded to the current tax year, you can put in income estimates and try to see how much you are getting back as a refund. This way you can plan ahead and maybe change your withholding for the next tax year.
Estimating your refund is all about figuring out how much tax you owe, subtracting what you have paid and hoping that you get a negative number. The higher the negative number, the bigger the refund you can get when you file your taxes.
