Guys this isn’t hard.
25% is withheld initially. Only when you file will you then know your income tax rate for that year. That bonus will be taxed accordingly.
If your effective tax rate is <25% = appropriate refund.
>25% = you have to write a check (depending)
What the hell is a HVA?
I think a lot of guys here have only done a few 1040EZs so far and aren't used to thinking in terms of withholding vs actual taxation yet.
HVA = High Value Aviator. If you are currently empoyed at Envoy, you are NOT one according to the company:
