My brother in law is an Accountant and has done our taxes for 30 years. We have paid in every year. Now with the new tax plan, we can't itemize, as we just don't have the deductions. With that being said, my wife is self employed and I make money for my companies owners. This year was actually the least amount of money we have paid in. We used to itemize, but with the mark at $2,400 we came up just short. Also, my take home pay seems to be a little more the last year, and my co-workers have mentioned it to. Whatever the reason, I have not complaints for the complaint department.
