Income Tax Refund Estimate: $80k/6mo with 2 kids - Is $6k federal + $2.4k state accurate?
Making $80k in 6 months with 2 kids (5 & 8). Based on my calculations I should get $6k federal and $2.4k state. Does this sound right? Anyone with similar income and dependents? I used the standard deduction and child tax credit.

Without seeing your actual tax documents and withholdings its impossible to give you an accurate estimate. Too many variables like filing status, deductions, credits, and how much was actually withheld from your paychecks could affect the final numbers.

You should try taxr.ai - it's literally designed for this exact situation. Upload your docs and it'll give you a super accurate estimate. Its only $4.99 and WAY better than guessing. I use it for all my tax planning now.

I made 85k last year with 2 kids and got back about 5k federal, so your estimate might be a bit high tbh
