Thanks Brandon

Honestly I'll hope reservations and congratulations till after we see how it goes, but the fact it's a limited pilot makes me optimistic.

Congrats, Americans! It's a long time coming but still a huge deal and I'm happy for you all 😁

For anyone who has filed with it, how much does this return differ from using a company? Is your total return the same or can a tax professional get you back a significant amount more?

[-] Nobsi@feddit.de 5 points 9 months ago

You get as much back as you would if you knew what to claim.

I don't think I'll ever be able to use it, since it doesn't list capital gains as a supported type of income

Unless that's also related to it being a pilot

No matter what is planned right now, if this isn’t a PR disaster but the opposite and all the direct filers are gleeful about it, I think it’ll be good enough publicity for them to broaden it to most any use case.

CPAs with a million times more insight may need to correct me there though.

Can someone with more knowledge than me explain how this might differ from Canada's system

[-] BaroqueInMind@lemmy.one 9 points 9 months ago

It differs because more of it goes to the defense budget than any other country by a high order of magnitude.

I seem to recall an income cap so I might not be able to use it but my son will and that's a good thing.

[-] aeharding@lemmy.world 5 points 9 months ago

I can’t wait until this is available in my state!

[-] LucidNightmare@lemm.ee 4 points 9 months ago

Thank you so much for bringing this to my attention!
