有的说,我的收入很简单,就是工资和利息,有什么可报的。如果是这样,你更应该钻研一下税表,看看有哪些项目/措施可以用来减税,然后采取一些行动。现在老美每天增印钞票,如果仅仅把辛苦钱放到银行里吃利息,基本上能保值就不错了,因为每年的通货膨胀基本上都在1个百分点以上,甚至更高些。
比较美加两遍的税表,美国的税表相对简单,或者说简单的多。1040 就两页,很多人根本就用不上附表Schedule。 加州的税表更简单一些。原因嘛,可能真的是由很多老美不仅数学不行,逻辑也有问题。因此IRS 比较尽心,把能做的都给做了,尽量让纳税人的计算将到最低点,根据自己的应税收入,直接查表找到要交的税就可以了。像401K, 直接从收入里减去,根本不用考虑了。但是刚开始需要分清是单身、已婚单报、双报或者是家长(? 哈哈,直接翻译是这样,Head Of Household)。
加拿大的税就比较复杂,T1 有4页,一般的人至少还需要两页Schedule 1 才能计算出要交多少税。 购买的退休金RRSP 可以根据需要以后抵扣,再加上投资的复杂计算,一般人的确感到头疼。 不过就只有单身和已婚两项。
(尽管看官可能学历都比较高,可是美国人的平均受教育程度在发达国家中仅属中等,成年人中占的比例低于1/3,而加拿大为最高,达1/2,这是某组织统计的结果)
可能是报税复杂吧,加拿大现在允许报税人修改10年内的税表,而美国一般是3年。看看2012与2013年美加两国的联邦税率

可以看出,加拿大的2013年税反而变低了。加拿大的抵税项目多,特别是如果有小孩的话。
大家可以根据这些表预测2013交多少税,也许你会采取一些节税的措施。 祝你今年的腰包鼓鼓的!
