Babies: 6 - 9 Months

Anyone else actually owe on their taxes this year?

BOO!  I was so disappointed!!!  We got a ton back last year without a dependent, and this year, with DD, we owe Fed (a LOT) and a little to State.  I made a lot less because my maternity leave was unpaid, but I paid in a lot less.  I am so totally bummed out about it :-(  Misery loves company!

  • This is the first year in awhile that we haven't owed and are getting money back, baby and me quitting my job took care of that. Are you sure that's right with your maternity leave and a child credit? Sorry, that sucks!

    Yeah - it is my own fault for not paying close enough attention to my paystubs.  I made about 25% less income, but paid in about 33% of what I paid in last year.  I took deferred bonuses as income while on maternity leave, so they were taxed at my regular rate, rather than at the bonus rate.  I use a CPA, so I am afraid it is accurate, but I am still super sad about it Crying

  • Since I started my job so late in the year, I didn't make enough money to pay fed taxes, so I get NOTHING back. I can't get anything for two new babies or the child tax credit. Gotta bargain with the ex to see if he will claim them and give me a chunk of the money.

    I was so upset. I really needed that money!
