Us, ourselves, are guilty of saying that a big tax refund is basically just giving Uncle Sam an interest-free loan...
But there’s a specific scenario we want to share today where getting a big tax refund doesn’t necessarily mean you overwithheld or overpaid.
In fact, *this* is specifically built into our tax system to result in a refund: refundable credits.
When it comes to refundable credits like the Earned Income Tax Credit or Premium Tax Credit, even if they reduce your tax liability to $0, whatever amount of the credit is left over is added to your refund.
Want to worry less about the tax nitty-gritty and just feel good knowing you’ve got an accountant who cares about these types of things? We can make that happen! 😏
