$2800 is a bit of a stretch. i'd go back through and make sure you didn't "fat-finger" any of the numbers with your income.



Yeah, it's a $3300 swing and without any reasonable explanation, I feel a strong error review is warranted.

OP: Did you have any sale of property, or significant transaction for which you have capital gains exposure? Did you move a bunch of money into a high-interest account last year?

We're brainstorming because you're right that something is up with the numbers, but you have the best information on what might be a big change. There was no policy change I'm aware of that could result in this big a swing on similar numbers.

I am 46 and this is the first year in 20 years that I have not been able to itemize. On top of that, one of my kids turned 17, so we lost her child tax credit.

Capping property tax is a real nut punch, because without the cap my deductions would be 6500 more.

Last year I got back about 800 (I try to keep it at 0). This year I owe 2500.
