Hi All,
I can't seem to figure out why we owe 3k in taxes this year. When I run my wife's return in the tax refund calculator she owes about $2,800.
Her details are below.
Wages: 71743.6
Federal income tax: 8270.08
State income tax: 2289.54
Worked in Indiana but lives in Illinois.
No deductions.
My details are below:
Wages: 145,665.85
Federal income tax: 31,606.73
State income tax: 5,897.52
No deductions.
Filing jointly we owe about $2,800. When I ran both of our taxes as if we were single filing separately I got a 700 refund and she owed about 3,000.
I've tried a number of tax withholding calculators and paycheck calculators online and our tax withholding looks fine based on those but when putting it in for the 2017 tax return her's is materially off. Any thoughts?
We were married 4/16/2016 and we claimed zero on our W-4. Is there something we are missing? Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Thank you
