Contribuyentes no deben creer estos mitos acerca de reembolsos de impuestos federales

Ahora que muchos contribuyentes presentaron sus declaraciones de impuestos federales, están ansiosos por obtener detalles acerca de su reembolso. Cuando se trata de reembolsos, existen varios mitos comunes que pueden confundir a los contribuyentes.

Obtener un reembolso este año significa que no es necesario ajustar la retención para 2021

Para ayudar a evitar una sorpresa el próximo año, los contribuyentes deben hacer cambios ahora para prepararse para el próximo año. Una manera de hacer esto es ajustar su retención de impuestos con su empleador. Esto es fácil de hacer con el Estimador de Retención de Impuestos. Esta herramienta puede ayudar a los contribuyentes a determinar si su empleador retiene la cantidad correcta. Esto es especialmente importante para cualquier persona que haya obtenido un resultado inesperado al presentar su declaración de impuestos este año. Además, se anima a los contribuyentes que experimentan un evento en la vida como el matrimonio, el divorcio, el nacimiento de un hijo, una adopción o que ya no pueden reclamar a una persona como dependiente, a verificar su retención.

Llamar al IRS o a un profesional de impuestos proporcionará una mejor fecha de reembolso

Mucha gente piensa que hablar con el IRS o con su profesional de impuestos es la mejor manera de saber cuándo recibirán su reembolso. La mejor manera de verificar el estado de un reembolso es en línea a través de la herramienta ¿Dónde está mi reembolso? o la aplicación IRS2Go.

Los contribuyentes pueden llamar a la línea directa automatizada de reembolsos al 800-829-1954. Esta línea directa tiene la misma información que ¿Dónde está mi reembolso? y los asistentes telefónicos del IRS. No es necesario llamar al IRS al menos que ¿Dónde está mi reembolso? le indique que lo haga.

Solicitar una transcripción de impuestos es una manera secreta de obtener una fecha de reembolso

Hacerlo no ayudará a los contribuyentes a saber cuándo recibirán su reembolso. ¿Dónde está mi reembolso? le dice al contribuyente que su declaración de impuestos se ha recibido y si el IRS aprobó o envió el reembolso.

¿Dónde está mi reembolso? debe estar mal porque aún no hay una fecha de depósito

Actualizaciones de ¿Dónde está mi reembolso?, tanto en IRS.gov como en la aplicación móvil IRS2Go, se realizan una vez al día. Estas actualizaciones suelen producirse de la noche a la mañana. Aunque el IRS emite la mayoría de los reembolsos en menos de 21 días, es posible que un reembolso demore más. Si el IRS necesita más información para procesar una declaración de impuestos, la agencia se comunicará con el contribuyente por correo. Los contribuyentes también deben considerar el tiempo que tardan los bancos en registrar el reembolso en la cuenta del contribuyente. Las personas que esperan un reembolso por correo deben planificar el tiempo que tarda en llegar un cheque.

¿Dónde está mi reembolso? debe estar equivocado porque el monto del reembolso es menor de lo esperado

Hay varios factores que podrían hacer que un reembolso de impuestos sea mayor o menor de lo esperado. Las situaciones que podrían disminuir un reembolso incluyen:

• El contribuyente cometió errores matemáticos.
• El contribuyente adeuda impuestos federales de un año anterior.
• El contribuyente adeuda impuestos estatales, manutención infantil, préstamos estudiantiles u otras obligaciones no tributarias federales morosas.
• El IRS retiene una parte del reembolso mientras revisa un reclamo en la declaración.

El IRS enviará por correo al contribuyente una carta de explicación si se realizan estos ajustes. Algunos contribuyentes también pueden recibir una carta del Buró del Servicio Fiscal del Departamento del Tesoro si su reembolso se redujo para compensar ciertas obligaciones financieras.

 

2020 Census Apportionment Results Delivered to the President

The U.S. Census Bureau announced today that the 2020 Census shows the resident population of the United States on April 1, 2020, was 331,449,281.

The U.S. resident population represents the total number of people living in the 50 states and the District of Columbia. The resident population increased by 22,703,743 or 7.4% from 308,745,538 in 2010.

“The American public deserves a big thank you for its overwhelming response to the 2020 Census,” Secretary of Commerce Gina Raimondo said. “Despite many challenges, our nation completed a census for the 24^th time. This act is fundamental to our democracy and a declaration of our growth and resilience. I also want to thank the team at the U.S. Census Bureau, who overcame unprecedented challenges to collect and produce high-quality data that will inform decision-making for years to come.”

Reminder: Causeway Traffic Impacts

 

Traffic Impacts: Causeway Closures Friday, April 2, 2021

Due to the City’s State of Emergency relating to the High Impact Period, restaurants and businesses along the Española Way corridor between Pennsylvania Avenue and Washington Avenue are excluded from the Emergency Order and are permitted to operate until the citywide 12 a.m. curfew along with all other restaurants and businesses outside of the High Impact Zone. As a reminder, the following measures are in effect:  Julia Tuttle/MacArthur Causeways: The Miami Beach Police Department (MBPD) will deploy a license plate reader (LPR) detail on eastbound lanes in lieu of a checkpoint starting at 10 p.m. each evening through 6 a.m. the following day. Motorists will not have to come to a complete stop. There won’t typically be any interaction with officers except in the case of vehicles that are the subject of an LPR alert. While this should be faster than residency checks, delays are likely. Venetian Causeway: Eastbound lanes will be closed to traffic from 10 p.m. through 6 a.m. the following day, except in the case of City residents, guests of hotels/short-term rentals in the City, employees of City businesses, and individuals making deliveries from restaurants. Miami Beach residents must show a valid Florida identification card, driver’s license or utility bill indicating a Miami Beach address. Hotel and vacation rental guests must show their lodging confirmation or hotel key card that indicates where they are staying. Employees of Miami Beach businesses can show their employee identification cards. Visitors with restaurant reservations booked after 10 p.m. should show a confirmation of the reservation.

Reminder, effective from 8 p.m. each day through 6 a.m. the following day now through Monday, April 5, a curfew is in effect ONLY in the area bounded by 5 Street on the south, 16 Street on the north, Pennsylvania Avenue on the west, and Ocean Drive on the east (the “High Impact Zone” highlighted in the map below). The curfew shall not apply to the Española Way corridor between Pennsylvania Avenue and Washington Avenue.

Restaurants within the High Impact Zone shall be permitted to continue to operate for delivery services only. All other areas in Miami Beach are open for residents and visitors to patronize after the 8 p.m. curfew in the High Impact Zone, such as: Lincoln Road Española Way South of Fifth Sunset Harbour Collins Park 41 Street North Beach and more.

Frequently Asked Questions What days will the emergency road closures and traffic changes be in effect? The emergency road closures and traffic changes will be in effect from 10 p.m. each day through 6 a.m. the following day starting Thursday, April 1 through Monday, April 5 at 6 a.m. Which causeways into Miami Beach have been affected by the High Impact Period emergency measures? Three of the City’s four causeways have been affected by the emergency measures. They are the MacArthur Causeway, Julia Tuttle Causeway and Venetian Causeway. The 79 Street Causeway will continue normal operations. What identification will be required? Miami Beach residents must show a valid Florida identification card, driver’s license or utility bill indicating a Miami Beach address. Hotel and vacation rental guests must show their lodging confirmation or hotel key card that indicates where they are staying. Employees of Miami Beach businesses can show their employee identification cards. Visitors with restaurant reservations booked after 10 p.m. should show a confirmation of the reservation. Will westbound traffic on the causeways be affected by the emergency measures? Only eastbound traffic will be affected by the emergency measures. Westbound traffic will proceed as usual. Does Miami Beach have any plans to erect checkpoints on other roads that connect nearby communities to Miami Beach, such as Harding Avenue from Surfside? No. There are no plans to set up checkpoints on other roads at this time. What if someone who lives in a neighboring community wants to travel on one of the restricted causeways? Residents from nearby communities will have to use one of the causeways that are open to nonresident traffic unless they are a guest at a Miami Beach hotel or employed by a Miami Beach business. What time will police begin occupying the causeways? Police will begin setting up each night at 9:30 p.m. Setup is expected to be completed by 10 p.m. What are the estimated traffic delays? What will be done to ameliorate those delays? Residents are encouraged to use the Venetian or 79 Street Causeway so that they will not be subjected to traffic delays.  Have food delivery services been consulted? Will they be allowed to deliver food from outside Miami Beach after 10 p.m.? Will it cost more and take longer? Food deliveries may take longer based on where the driver is coming from. Costs will be determined by each delivery service. Can I get back to my home via rideshare services (Lyft, Uber, etc.) after 10 p.m.? Will it be more expensive given that it will take longer? You will still be able to take a rideshare service to your home or business on Miami Beach. The price will be determined by each rideshare company. Can family and friends visit me after 10 p.m. when the restrictions are in place? In order to avoid the resident screening, we suggest that family and friends be directed to the 79 Street Causeway.  Stay connected with Miami Beach PD on Twitter and Facebook. To receive real-time traffic text messages, send a message to MBTraffic at 888777.
