Would you rather owe the IRS come tax szn or get a fat refund? There are pros and cons to both, which Katie and Henah walk through—as well as the best way to break even and some tips on properly filling out tax forms.

Listener Note: Katie misspoke in the episode when she said schedule K income and meant to say schedule C income—we hope this helps clarify!
