    State: VA
    age: 22

    -Single

    Greatness comes to those who take it.

    If you can't command, then you must follow.

    use the taxable wages on your w-2 or last paycheck of the year

    also, the student loan interest is tax deductible. you should be able to find the info on your online account for the loans

    1. Depends on how much you had withheld from your paychecks.
    2. Your student loan interest is deductible.
    3. Do you have any dependents?
    4. Standard deduction is 5645 or so.
    5. Personal exemption is 3500.

    SO:

    40,000
    (5645)
    (3500)
    (3000) SLI
    =
    27,855
    *.25 tax rate
    =6963

    That is the tax you owe. Subtract your withholding to get your tax owed/refund.

    ^^^ That

    If you're doing it right, and the Exemptions on your W-4 are set properly, your refund should be near Zero. (Otherwise, you're simply "investing" in a no-interest savings account all year long).

    dependents? I have no kids
    Then most likely you picked "2" and you shouldn't expect _anything_ in return cause they'll be taking out about 7000 a year in taxes.

    The only way you are going to get more is if you have a crap ton of credits like house interest or student loan interest and I mean _a lot_ as you'll need to go above your standard D and your personal E.

    this is ideal.


    if bob makes $40k and gets $10k taken out in taxes, He will get $6k back as tax return.
    if john makes $40k and gets $6k taken out in taxes, he will get $0 back as tax return.


    at the end of the day, both guys took home $34k in salary. Bob gave the govt a free loan though.

    John takes that extra money home each week/month and is able to invest it/put in savings.

    John ends up with more money that bob because john didnt lend his money to the government.
    Negs to anyone that:
    makes a terrible troll thread
    makes any conspiracy theory thread
    makes a religious/political thread without knowledge of what they're talking about

    That's the ideal scenario, except John blew away his money and so will bob when he gets it back.
