Bro 14 and 11th me over here in 8th grade and im a year older than you whats wrong with american grades like in our country 10th grade is on the same level of 12th Grade in america lol
turned 15 a couple months ago and the first thing I looked for was a job ( got hired at burger king). Worked at BK for about 3 weeks and hated fast food so I quit. Got my paychecks for those weeks and realized I have no idea what taxes are. Wish they taught this in school but this video was very helpful!

Mr. Bigglesworth not bragging. I worked 5 months of the year and earned $8000 not including tips. For tips I’ve earned around $50 a night and I work an average of 3 or 4 days a week.
I’m actually really nervous for the first time I have to do this. I’m 14 almost 15 and the time to pay my taxes for the first time is slowly creeping closer. I see all of these videos talking about if you get the wrong amount you’ll go to jail 💀. I’m scared to do it the first time but I’m glad there’s resources like this now.

Omg dude thank you so much for this, I'm 13 rn and I hate how school doesn't teach us about taxes, buying homes etc. It always sounded hard to file taxes but you explained it so well it sounds kinda easy, let's hope it is easy lol
My god, THANK YOU FOR THIS VIDEO. I don't have an adult in my life to help me and have been stressing about taxes. I was never taught a single thing and just saw taxes as this mystical scary thing that if I did wrong the IRS would ruin my life over. Thanks so much man
Thank you for this! These sort of things make me a little jittery because I feel like this is weird jargon, but I should know this and I am so happy I got to learn this in a concise and precise manner:)
Math teachers act like paying takes is like 2x^2+10x-4=0 use the quadratic formula to solve for x, round your answer to the nearest hundred, watch for extraneous solution, that’s how much tax you need to pay.
Thanks for the advice! If I knew back in high school how tax returns worked I would've been filing taxes all along. I've been overpaying my taxes for years!
It amazes me how schools are so insistent on refusing to teach teenagers useful skills like this and making it a requirement. They used to do this, but I guess our generation has to figure this out on our own.
lmao am 13 and am watching this cause am not trying to go to jail just over taxes in like 5 years cause school doesn't teach anything aside from reading and math
thanks for clarifying!😣 as a fifteen year old, i like to imagine what it would be like once i move out of my parent's home. This is definitely one of those things they rarely teach u in school that i feel is important to know😋
Thank you for this quick and clear introduction to filing taxes. Great point about schools not teaching basic skills like this. I will show this to my students.
@@idontknow4687 Thanks so much! That means a lot. I didn't learn this stuff in school either, but it's so important for life! Sometimes we have to educate ourselves.
Filing taxes, purchasing and dealing with insurance, how to pay off credit debt, how to fix in-home appliances, car maintenance, how to deal with finances to make a budget, how to build things .....all of these things are necessary in the real world. But to learn these skills you have to basically go to college or technical school in those specific fields of study or look it up on the internet. We are not being taught these things for a reason. The people behind this want you to be dumb so they can make money off of your uneducated decisions. We live in a world where RUclips and Google are better teachers in one keyword search than 12 years of school. Let that sink in.

Can I just say the for this bc what are we ment to do with 'the mitochondria is the powerhouse of the cell' like I would rather be learning about taxes (I'm 13) and what actually important at least for early adult life
(Im sorry im really dumb) if my employer is already witholding money for taxes and i dont care about getting a return (ive only been working part-time for 3 months & have earned less than 4K) & dont have any other sources of income do i have to still file taxes??
So, I worked at walmart for 6 months. That's the first job I ever had, and I'm completely lost on taxes. Do I need to call them? And how do I file taxes if I have no money to pay the fee for the software. Is there a video I can watch on how to do it myself?
Well let me make everyone feel better! Here i am 22 years old filing my taxes for the first time🤘🏼🤣. No shame baby! We're all in our own lanes learning at our own speed 🤝
So I never filed any of my taxes, it's been a few years. I was 16 when I worked at BK for 10 months. And worked again at a different location for a few months. What would I have to do, would I get in trouble? I'm confused..
New to it myself (had a family friend do it for me) but if my understand this.... -You owe based on how much money you make -Deductibles makes the cost go down -Every paycheck you get, is taxed to pay what you owe throughout the year -You pick how much you pay from each check, when you get hired -When it gets added up, if you paid too much you get $, didnt pay enough you owe $ Doing your taxes is just to get your money back by finding deductibles and showing that you paid too much throughout the year. If you owed money they would be calling you. Most likely you paid too much and Gov keeps it
Thats exactly what they do, im just not sure if they have to contact you when it happens. Think of it like you owe a friend money, you pay him back a little bit, every week or so (no one is keeping track of how much you've paid bc counting all year long is too much work lol) april shows up and he counts everything up. If you didnt pay enough he is going to ask for the rest of the money If you paid too much then you just made him happy
I would ask a family member if your not sure. My understanding is that they already know how much you made and what you have paid from your paychecks. Taxes is just to cover your ass if you owe. Paying someone to do it for you so they can find all of the deductibles to lower your cost
It's highly likely that you are probably owed a small refund assuming you had withholding from your checks. You should have gotten a W-2 from BK. If not, go and ask them for a copy. You have three years from the original due date of your return to file to get a refund. So for example if your W-2 is from 2017. That was due April 15, 2018, so you would have until April 15, 2021 to file that 2017 tax return. If you are owed a refund and don't file, you are not in trouble, just out the refund if you do not file on time. If you are owed a refund, it is likely not worth hiring someone to do the return(s) as it could likely cost more to hire a professional than the refund you would get. There are a few online sites that you can use for free, and your tax return would be just about as simple as they come. Just follow the instructions - though I'm not sure if you can use the online sources to file years after the fact. You would have to check in on that.
Me watching this as a 16 year old learning what school never taught me thanks a lot man i finally know what to do because a "certain place" never showed me how

3:04 This is a very comprehensive video and I am thankful you made it, but something about the way you paused and/to blink destroyed me, I couldn't stop laughing
lucky to live outside of US. Here post sends every year (after x years old) to you a paper where is estimated how much you may earn in next year, there is starting tax-percentage and there is second tax-percentage if you earn more than xxxx€/that year (that xxxxx€/year is estimate what you may earn). The next year you get pre-filled paper from post where is everything you have earned and if you have paid too much taxes, then government will sent the extra amount to you, but if you have paid too little, then you will get bill (but that usually nowadays only happens when you have two jobs, and you tell the same prosentage to both of those or you have got new job and xxxxx€/year starts from 0€ in that workplace) if you don't care, then you don't ever need to do anything, because you don't get any more or any less money even if you change the estimated earnings amount, some amount of money just comes a half year late (usually under 1% of year's income)
you don't even need to show that paper to anyone if you don't want, but in that case your tax-percentage will be 60%, but a half year later you will get huge amount of money in one day :DD
I didn’t file in 2019-2020 I worked late 2019 and people said don’t waste your time because I wouldn’t get much back I stopped working in mid 2020, what do I do ???
Thanks for the video! I tried TaxAct and it really has a very smooth process and I manage to submit the tax refund for free in 30 minutes or so. As long as you income was less than $ 69K during 2019.
Great video! Anyone who's new, follow that first link in the description, and just go from there! -Took me less than 2 hours -If you have any questions, don't be afraid to ask your parents (or Google) any clarifying questions you may have -If you're under the Education/Student Loans section, chances are YOU aren't paying for anything but your parents are, so it's likely that YOU were paying $0 (let your parents do the hard stuff when they file) Again, great stuff, thank you so much!!

-You owe based on how much money you make
-Deductibles makes the cost go down
-Every paycheck you get, is taxed to pay what you owe throughout the year

It's highly likely that you are probably owed a small refund assuming you had withholding from your checks. You should have gotten a W-2 from BK. If not, go and ask them for a copy.
You have three years from the original due date of your return to file to get a refund. So for example if your W-2 is from 2017. That was due April 15, 2018, so you would have until April 15, 2021 to file that 2017 tax return.

My school teaches you about doing taxes but i like refreshing my memory thanks
This video really helped me thank you
Thank you so much I’m planning on doing my taxes next year when I’m 18
What about if you’re born with disabilities or handicaps? It’s even MORE COMPLICATED than the average regular citizens. Know any advice or tips, etc, that I can use? PLEASE I wanna move out and be able to understand taxes, bills and stuff. FINANCE, my mortal enemy.
3:04 This is a very comprehensive video and I am thankful you made it, but something about the way you paused and/to blink destroyed me, I couldn't stop laughing
lucky to live outside of US.
Here post sends every year (after x years old) to you a paper where is estimated how much you may earn in next year, there is starting tax-percentage and there is second tax-percentage if you earn more than xxxx€/that year (that xxxxx€/year is estimate what you may earn).
The next year you get pre-filled paper from post where is everything you have earned and if you have paid too much taxes, then government will sent the extra amount to you, but if you have paid too little, then you will get bill (but that usually nowadays only happens when you have two jobs, and you tell the same prosentage to both of those or you have got new job and xxxxx€/year starts from 0€ in that workplace)
if you don't care, then you don't ever need to do anything, because you don't get any more or any less money even if you change the estimated earnings amount, some amount of money just comes a half year late (usually under 1% of year's income)
you don't even need to show that paper to anyone if you don't want, but in that case your tax-percentage will be 60%, but a half year later you will get huge amount of money in one day :DD
I'm not even in USA and I'm watching this for no reason.

4:09 My parents once got audited, they probably saved their tax copies though for that.
Here because schools don’t teach this
I didn’t file in 2019-2020 I worked late 2019 and people said don’t waste your time because I wouldn’t get much back

Great video!
Anyone who's new, follow that first link in the description, and just go from there!
-Took me less than 2 hours
-If you have any questions, don't be afraid to ask your parents (or Google) any clarifying questions you may have
-If you're under the Education/Student Loans section, chances are YOU aren't paying for anything but your parents are, so it's likely that YOU were paying $0 (let your parents do the hard stuff when they file)
Again, great stuff, thank you so much!!
Were are you?? Your last battle bay video was patch 2.8. That was two years ago!
