Paying more, to get by with less isn't a finacial plan.
It' s simply being lazy.
...
It' s your money - take charge of it.
Anyone who graduated 8th grade has the math skills necessary.
And you would still be eligible for those credits if you paid in --- which would put you further ahead. ( I asked my SO - who does this shit for pay).
Getting a refund costs you money - end of story.

You need to declare more exemptions - so you have to pay in by April 15th.
Do the math, dummy.
If you are getting a refund - you are providing the US Government with an interest free loan, for your earning year.
That' s right - that " refund" costs you money.
Better plan --- and financially sound as fuck --- put money aside every month - and collect the interest on it --- then pay in on April 15th......
Or, snivel about what the " convenience " of your forced " savings" of a refund costs you - when the government doesn't come through on time.... Hint - the government doesn't get penalized for late payment...
Ever hear of refundable tax credits, which many lower income families receive and can be substantial?
