Are You Owed A Tax Refund?

A number of different factors are taken into account to calculate if you are owed a tax refund. These factors include the duration you worked during the tax year, what your income level is and if you worked more than one job. There are also situations where you may be entailed to a tax rebate such as if you have a family and your income is below a certain level, or if you are under 18 years of age.
