I file using a 1099 as a retired federal government employee. I file single, over 65 with no dependents. Too much is being taken out of my monthly check for federal taxes. How do I reduce the amount taken out for federal taxes?

Why does the IRS have a hold on my checking account? I am 77 years old, located in Chantilly, Virginia, with no dependents, and made approximately $160,000 this year. My husband passed away in March.

I changed jobs in 2020 and contributed $19,500 towards my 403(b) plan and $6,000 towards my 401(k) plan in my old job. It seems I exceeded the $19,500 threshold for 2020. How can I file my tax return and correct the excess contributions?

I am an expat with a rental property in Ohio. I owed $4 federal tax for $47 income. Do I need to file for Ohio state tax? I am 64 years old with two dependent children, but their green card is under processing. My typical filing status is foreign income.

My IRS refund was reduced from $9600 to $5600. I used TurboTax Premium and purchased audit insurance. The refund has been deposited, but the written notice promised for June 8 has not been received. My wife passed away on September 30, and the long-term care deduction was $32,000. The multiple explanations for the reduction on the 'Where's My Refund' email do not make sense to me. I am 94 years old and have difficulty typing. What should I do next, and when can I talk to a person?
