A tax return could be lower than expected for many reasons. A mistake could have been made while filing or the incorrect amount of taxes were taken out of your check throughout the year, which caused a decrease.

Can you get a tax return if you owe tax from a previous year?

I believe the question you were trying to ask is can you get a tax "refund" if you owe tax from a previous year. The answer to that question is NO. Your tax refund will always be applied to any current tax liability. If your tax liability is less than the expected refund you will receive only a check for the difference.

Can you file F.I.C.A taxes on your tax return?

For the individual taxpayer that is filing the 1040 federal income tax return does NOT get a deduction for the FICA (social security and medicare taxes) that are withheld from the taxpayers earnings for the year. If you have more than one employer and your combined wages reported on your W-2s are more than the 106800 amount and your withheld social security tax amount is more than the 6621.60 then you would get a tax credit for the amount that is over the 6621.60 on your federal income tax return when you file the 2009 income tax return this year in 2010 or the 2010 tax return in the year 2011.

Why are bonuses taxed more than your pay?

When you complete your 1040 federal income tax return completely and correctly the taxable amount of the bonus will be subject to the federal income at your marginal tax rate. hat your seeing in your check isn't really any greater tax on one than the other, they are both taxed the same when you complete your return, which is what the above is saying. BUT for withholding, the rate you are expected to pay at is done by annualizing the income being reported. Your bonus, when annualized, would probably indicate your in a much higher income tax bracket than your weekly pay does.
