Brisa has not yet filed her 2022 personal income tax returns. She is quite upset at how much money she will owe in taxes and is dreading to prepare them. As a lawyer, she worked extremely hard in 2022 and on January 1, 2023, she became a
partner in the law firm where she worked. In 2022, she earned a gross annual salary of $230,000, and as she was on the partner track, she also received a bonus in December 2022 of $35,000. As Brisa is in the top marginal tax bracket, how

At the end of 2019, his uncle filed a Form 1099MISC indicating he had paid non-employee compensation of $1,600 to Jason (copies of the form were sent to Jason and the IRS).
