I ran the numbers and if taxes are eliminated on SS, and we get a 10% income tax rate cut, I'll save $90 next year or about $7.50 a month.![]()
I do my own taxes…at this point in life, it’s pretty simple. Standard deduction and maybe a schedule C if I get tournament winning that are reported by 1099M
If you are an employee…take a look at your W4 and this IRS tax withholding estimator.

You can adjust your withholding by modifying your W4 “if” you are getting a significant refund. I’d consider that 1000 or more. That’s money you can use or save through out the year. I’m an hourly employee and so is my wife. I owed the govt 6400 this year. I adjusted the wife’s W4 and upped her percentage of retirement contributions to try and get the withholding and tax liability closer together. I don’t want to owe that much, but I don’t want a refund either.
No tax is just more talking points to run it into the ground.

- Eliminating Social Security taxes would also require finding new funding sources for the program, as these taxes contributed $50.7 billion to the Social Security trust fund in 2023..
I got my fed refund back in 4 business days.
State took almost 3 weeks.
I will say it was nice to have a baby last year.

As long as I don't get back or pay more than a thou.......drawing ss and working 3 days seems to be working for me.
Still have 5 more weeks before I have to write those thieving sob's a check.
The benefit is more money in your pocket every paycheck or more money in your retirement account. Why would anyone want to pay more than they need to into what essentially is an an escrow account the government holds interest free!
If you get a $2400 “tax” (its really an overpayment refund) return refund…that’s two hundred a month you could have spent on spinnerbaits or entry fees!
I am still waiting on one more document!!! Driving me nuts.
