What To Do if You Can't Pay All Your Federal Taxes

Maybe last year you sold a home or sold off a large amount of investments that had greatly grown in value. Perhaps your job is in sales, and because of a super successful year and commission compensation, your take-home pay had an unexpected and very big increase, or your annual bonus was much more than you had anticipated. Whatever the reason for the major positive change in assets and income, you realize that the federal taxes that you need to pay the U.S. Internal Revenue Service (IRS) this year may be more than the cash you have on hand, and very likely will bust your budget.

What To Do with Your 2022 Tax Refund, Commission or Bonus

An expected refund, commission or bonus can inspire exciting plans for spending our new money. Splurging on something self-indulgent and, maybe, unnecessary, might seem justified, as the COVID-19 pandemic, supply chain disruptions, and challenges with the U.S. economy in the past four years have been stressful for many people, both financially and in other ways. It’s natural to want to reward ourselves using part or all of a tax refund or bonus, which we may think of as extra money that’s different from our regular pay. Keep in mind that tax refunds are money that you’ve already earned. Whether it’s your regular pay or a refund, commission, or bonus, you should be still be responsible with how you use that money.

When the investment time period is complete the certificate of deposit has matured and can be reinvested or become cash.
