huh so the topic of the day was Taxes, thanks to Mysta
Kiara too had a recent run-in with taxes but apparently narrowly avoided debt:
It's weirdly topical, because as it happened, Kiara had a Twitter space 2 days ago where she, too, had a tax mishap and mostly because her tax lady fucked up. Luckily, Kiara is a chatterbox, so we know pretty well what the issue regarding her taxes was.
Firstly, apparently, the Tax payment for the year 2022 came up very soon and that she should also pay her 2023 Taxes in advance and her tax lady reminded her to pay it. But Kiara saw the amount, and told her that paying that much at once would bankrupt her.
Following that, the tax lady double-checked and only then realised that Kiara should actually pay half of that.
So what happened is that her tax lady didn't adjust Kiaras tax bracket and still used her 2021 income for 2022 and 2023 and didn't check the documents Kiara gave her. But Kiara makes less now than in 2021, so that should place her in a cheaper tax bracket, but because her tax lady didn't adjust Kiaras earnings, she was still paying above her pay-grade.
The tax lady also didn't tell her she needed to make an advance payment until like the day before it was due.
Well, all that happened, but in the end, Kiara spoke to her manager, her mom, her financial advisor (a different person than tax lady) and claimed that now, everything is solved and fine. For the taxes that she already paid in excess, she will now get a rebate for the following few years, and they are basically considered already paid for now.
