The Inevitable. Death and Taxes!

I had most of our paperwork so I figured why not start our taxes?  I put it all together, got calculations, figures... I own my own business (Avon) and have to fill out a lot for that, then there are the simpler things; husband's W-2, Student Loan, deductions, etc.  All finished except my last W-2 from my temp agency job.

It finally came.  I input the info.  I made a whopping $2800 and paid $55 taxes withheld.  It reduced our refund by $400.

Yeah, that makes sense.  We are a  less than $50,000 a year household (by a hair), so $2800 should totally reduce our refund by $400.  Keep in mind, this means if I had not worked that job at all, we would be getting a $1600 refund.  That kind of pisses me off.
