Restaurant...I'm adding a patio dining area.
No loop holes, I overpaid. the money was always mine I earned it, I took the risks to open a business all for the right to pay a higher % of my income.

Short bus-The refund was only large enough for one patio but I thought I would put it back into business this year rather than spend it on myself. You didn't answer the question you hypocrit

Fifteen Jobs is not even in the Federal micro business category. The Dept. of Commerce list $25M as a Small business.
Are you paying those 15 $1.66M each.
Go big Rib Shack Go
My apology for not answering you more directly. For years I have seen many people that think they have a business and don't even qualify as the samllest of small business.
I did Government Contracting for years until the Government re clasified Small Business as $25million per year. That eliminated the so called Small Business set aside work.
Taxes No refund for this short bus only pay pay pay.
As much as I love this country I really do not like paying more than 1/2 my income in state and federal tax.
I know I should have incorporated my Construction business years ago but I didn't. Year after year I get audited for not paying tax on expences it would take months to prove the money was used to buy concrete for the federal government etc.
Once they stole $22K of a final payment. Over a dispute on a previous contract. They claimed the job was done to fast therefore I must have had more employees than I claimed. I went to Federal Court over it it took 7 years The Judge agreed with my claim that the job went better than expected. Ordered the DOL to fefund the $$$. I'm still waiting.

Still kidding yourself are you . You do not earn that money or even pay a tax .
The people who eat your food and the workers who serve and prepare it are the ones paying for it all . You are only doing what you can do and by using money the work stored in paper from that work you are able to prosper and have more then them . Would you pay the cook more if the only reason people came was his cooking . The servers more if they came to see them as in hooters . Each person earns his own way and you profit from them all .
They certainly would be doing something someplace and if it where not for you profiting from them and others like you they would have a lot more pay.
So you do not have a lot more income and are not forced to pay more you have chosen to take more and pay for it with the others labor .
No one who provides a service can pay a tax .
You must produce something from the land to pay a tax . And even then it is not a tax it is tribute for allowing you to work the land .
You are what I call a feeder . Some one who feeds off the work of others and claims they are contributing more and so deserve more Its the american way . .

I haven't had a refund for years. I always try to be on the hairy edge of under-withheld so that I just need to pay a little bit when I send in m,y tax return.
A refund is really a free loan you gave to the government by letting them keep your tax over-payments for the year. It is not free money the government is nicely donating to you. Adjust your withholding amount to try to pay less and get a smaller refund. That way your dollars are still in your pocket to help your business.

I'm in the tattoo and body piercing business and I run my business so that I don't get any refund but then, I never have to pay any either but if I did get a refund, I would put it right back into my business. I used to until I got used to this system.

I paid a years worth of car payments, which meant I paid less in interest. I also bought a laptop with 3 year warranty, paid some bills, and treated my kids to a few really nice dinners out.
By the way, fantastic choice in how you are spending your tax refund!

I already used my taxes to finish paying off one of my cars, and completely cleared all items on my credit report. (Im 24 years old so yes i messed up a few times in the past) but now i free up my paychecks to better provide for my wife and children and improve my future by clearing my name. Now i just have to finish attaining my degree.

That's quite a healthy refund - um, this year, unfortunately we ended up owing taxes (it was the whole dual income-no kids thing).

You're getting a refund?
Good job exploiting the loopholes of the tax code that benefit the super-rich.

You may be getting a visit from I.C.E. for those 15 new workers of yours, plus the builders.
