taxes

the journal of Michael Werneburg

twenty-eight years and a million words

Toronto, 2020.02.05

In preparation for my departure I did our taxes today, though I can't submit them yet. To my amazement it looks like we're owed a refund: it turns out that my most "permanent" employer must have been taking off too much tax. This is a weight off my mind as I'd been expecting to pay rather a lot due to the self-employment part of my income. I cannot get my head around how little tax you pay when self-employed.
