2020 Census: What We’re Asking

Your questions about when and how to take the 2020 Census, answered.

United States Census 2020

Your 2020 Census Questions Answered

Responding to the 2020 Census is easy, safe, and important. Learn more about the questions we’ll ask and how your answers will be used.

What Will I Be Asked?

As required by the Census Act, the U.S. Census Bureau submitted a list of questions to Congress on March 29, 2018. Based on that list, the 2020 Census will ask:
How many people are living or staying at your home on April 1, 2020. This will help us count the country’s population and ensure that we count people once, only once, and in the right place according to where they live on Census Day.
Whether the home is owned or rented. This will help us produce statistics about homeownership and renters. The rates of homeownership serve as one indicator of the nation’s economy. They also help in administering housing programs and informing planning decisions.
About the age of each person in the household. Similar to the recording of other demographic data such as the race and sex of each person, the U.S. Census Bureau creates statistics to better understand the size and characteristics of different age groups. Agencies use this data to plan and fund government programs that support specific age groups, including children and older populations.

What Won't I Be Asked?

Your Social Security number.
Money or donations.
Anything on behalf of a political party.
Your bank or credit card account numbers.
If you’ve been asked to provide any of these, please report it here.

Estimador de Retención de Impuestos actualizado ayuda a trabajadores a obtener reembolso deseado; muestra cómo llenar nuevo W-4 de 2020

Vídeo de YouTube del IRS:

  • Estimador de Retención de Impuestos del IRS – español
WASHINGTON — El Servicio de Impuestos Internos lanzó un nuevo y mejorado Estimador de Retención de Impuestos, diseñado para ayudar a los trabajadores a enfocarse en el reembolso que desean al tener la cantidad correcta de impuesto federal descontada de su paga.

El Estimador de Retención de Impuestos actualizado, ahora disponible en IRS.gov, incorpora los cambios del nuevo Formulario W-4 (SP), Certificado de Retenciones del Empleado, que los empleados pueden completar y entregar a sus empleadores este año.

El IRS insta a todos a ver si necesitan ajustar su retención a través del Estimador de Retención de Impuestos para realizar una revisión de sus cheques de pago. Si se necesita un ajuste, el Estimador ofrece recomendaciones específicas acerca de cómo completar el Formulario W-4 (SP) en línea de su empleador o proporciona el formulario PDF con partes clave completadas.

Para ayudar a los trabajadores a ajustar su retención de manera más efectiva, el Estimador de Retención de Impuestos actualizado presenta un control deslizante de reembolso personalizado que permite a los usuarios elegir el monto de reembolso que prefieren de una variedad de montos diferentes. El rango de reembolso exacto que se muestra se personaliza en función de la información tributaria ingresada por ese usuario.

Según el monto de reembolso seleccionado, el Estimador de Retención de Impuestos le dará al trabajador recomendaciones específicas acerca de cómo completar su W-4. Esta nueva característica permite a los usuarios que buscan reembolsos más grandes al final del año o más dinero en sus cheques de pago durante todo el año, tener la cantidad exacta retenida para cumplir con sus preferencias.

El Estimador actualizado también presenta otras mejoras, incluida una que permite que cualquier persona que espere recibir una bonificación indique si se retendrán impuestos. Además, las mejoras agregadas el verano pasado continúan disponibles, incluido el diseño apto para dispositivos móviles, el manejo de los ingresos por pensiones, los beneficios del Seguro Social y el impuesto sobre el trabajo por cuenta propia.

A partir de 2020, la retención del impuesto sobre el ingreso ya no se basa en el estado civil de un empleado y las deducciones de retención, vinculadas al valor de la exención personal. En cambio, la retención del impuesto sobre el ingreso generalmente se basa en el estado civil tributario esperado del trabajador y la deducción estándar para el año. Además, los trabajadores pueden optar por deducciones detalladas, el Crédito Tributario por Hijos y otros beneficios tributarios reflejados en su retención para el año.

Es importante que aquellos con más de un trabajo a la vez (incluidas las familias en las que trabajan ambos cónyuges) ajusten su retención para evitar que se les retenga muy poco. Usar el Estimador es la manera más precisa de hacerlo. Como en el pasado, los empleados también pueden optar por que un empleador retenga un monto fijo adicional en dólares en cada período de pago para cubrir, por ejemplo, los ingresos que reciben de la economía compartida, el trabajo por cuenta propia u otras fuentes no sujetas a retención.
