Yes, but picture what happened to me a few years back.Originally posted by: Demon-Xanth
dullard: That's why filing taxes at the end of the year is important, it irons all those kinks out.
1) Poor college student on stipend.
2) University goofs and forgets to pay me a paycheck.
3) Pay is only once a month, so missing one is bad enough.
4) Next month, they double the paycheck.
5) Double paycheck throws me from ~0% tax bracket well into the 25% bracket for that check.
6) So, when I finally get my check, there are hundreds of dollars in taxes withheld. Hundreds of dollars that I won't get for nearly a year until I file taxes.
Yes, it is ironed out in the end. But being without that money in the interim time can be difficult. It shouldn't be that way.
