Show Notes
Despite Trump administrations claims of massive tax refunds, IRS data reveals only a modest increase of $357 from $3221 in 2025 to $3571 in 2026. Common reasons for smaller checks include gig workers missing quarterly payments, under-withholding from multiple jobs, and changes in tax credits. Unpaid debts can also offset refunds. Positive changes like higher standard deductions and exemption on tips, overtime, or car loan interest may benefit some filers. If your refund seems off, check for math errors and consider adjusting withholdings for next year.
