Fine, stop my tax refund. Hold it as long as you wish, but I demand the same interest and penalties that the state would charge me if I withheld funds due to it. Some tax group should form a class action suit against the state, and force it to abide by it’s own rules. If it can live with charging us loan sharking rates, I can live with charging it loan sharking rates.
Never set your witholding so high the the gubmit owes you money when due. They have enough of your dough as it is.
A class action suit is a great idea.
They should pay interest and penalties at the same rate they charge us when we are late.
Also, they need to allow all businesses to suspend deducting California income tax from paychecks until each employee has had the $ amount suspended that he should have been refunded.
Nice bookkeeping nightmare for the state, huh?
