This. I never understood this stupid situation. You have all of the info for most of us, just give me my money back that you didn't earn...IRS: Send us what you owe us
Taxpayers: Okay, here's what I think the math works out to
IRS: Incorrect, you owe us $1203.64 more than what you claim
Taxpayers: IF YOU KNEW THIS ENTIRE **** TIME, WHY DIDN'T YOU JUST TELL US?!
Take all of your energy and focus it on taxing use instead of income please you useless slobs...

Aren't like TurboTax lobbyists responsible for bullshit like that? I swear I've read that, though I guess it could just be bullshit/rumor.

Blame the tax preparing corporate lobbyists. Intuit and others have spent millions on millions to keep the system complicated so that they can take people's money for filing the taxes.
@Gaucho , in Germany don't you just get a bill in the mail saying "You owe this."?

We had a couple years where Mrs Tif had incorrectly filled out a W2 or something, so withholdings were way off. Ended up with pretty eye-wattering bills in March, and we were like WTF is this.

Don't ask me, I'm self-employed and pay an accountant to prepare my tax return.

Call me dense, probably because I am, but isn't this just called your W-2?This came up with Mrs Tif the other day. I haven't really given it any thought, but it was an interesting idea so here it is for discussion: At the end of January, the IRS should send everyone a tax bill with their liability clearly spelled out. At that point individual taxpayers can endeavor to lower the number via whatever mechanisms are appropriate for their situation, but start out that every dollar is presumed as 'income'.
The current system is too reliant on self-reported information. I don't know if (or even how, really) the billing model could address that, but I thought it was an interesting concept.
This is why I was so enamored with the whole Fair Tax idea a few years back. Eliminate the IRS altogether, tax every sale at a flat rate on a national level, eliminate double taxation, and give corporations a big tax break and incentive to stay in the US. I'm sure there were a lot of loopholes and probably some pie in the sky numbers thrown about by advocates of the tax, but seemed like something we could build upon.

Dependents, marital status, self employed income, stock sales, stock options, child tax credits, etc all get in the way of the government doing taxes for you
Sales taxes are just as burdensome. Normal people just don't realize it because all of the reporting requirements fall on businesses

However, no, you don't just get a bill. You do your report first.
