Your tax return can exceed the tax paid due to various factors, such as refundable tax credits, which provide refunds even if you owe no taxes. Additionally, if you had excessive withholding from your paycheck throughout the year, this can lead to a larger refund when you file your return. Deductions and credits related to education, healthcare, or childcare can also significantly reduce your taxable income, resulting in a refund that exceeds the amount originally paid in taxes.
