Tennessee doesn't have state income tax either, so that helps!
Kids are grown, so no Child Tax Credit. Don't own a home anymore, so no deductions there either. I did spend a lot getting started this year. Had 3 kids part time 1st half of the year and 4 kids part time the 2nd half of the year. I know I didn't pay in the full 1/3 this year, due to moving expenses. So, I'm praying my deductions off set the part I didn't pay in!
