In Texas, is it true the less income you make in a year the more refund you get back?

Question

For example, your income for 2006 is less than $10,000. Can you anticipate to receive a higher refund because your income was below a certain level? Do you qualify for more deductions because of loew income?

Answer 1

Texas does not have a state income tax. We only file federal income tax. So whatever rules apply to rest of the country apply to us.

And you can get the Earned Income Tax Credit, which is responsible for giving big refunds to low income earners. But this is not exclusive to Texas...it's for everyone.

Answer 2

Perhaps this question belongs on the United States board, rather than the Canada tax board.

Texas is in the United States, still, and Canada is not.
