I'm filing as just an individual. In 2016 I made $99K and in $2017 I made $92K. Where I earn commission, my tax withholdings are higher because my income can't be predicted. Last year I wrote off my cell phone bill and mileage and ended up getting around $4000 or so back. This year I was expected to get about the same but my tax lady made some "recommendations" and bumped up my tax refund up to $8300. To be honest, I'm not exactly sure what she did. I asked her and she said she used the depreciation on my car from mileage and then side income where I lost money. What I don't want is to get this money and then 3 years from now have to pay it back because I'm completely ignorant of how things operate, that's why I'm using a professional or at least that's how I perceive it. Should I pull out? Is this normal?
