Deco Proteste warns: lower income tax withholdings don't mean paying less tax. Bill may come later

Deco Proteste warned that the reduction in IRS source withholdings may leave more money available in salary in the final months of the year, but doesn't necessarily mean paying less tax. According to the consumer defense organization, taxpayers may have to settle accounts with the tax authorities when they file their annual IRS return, so they should be careful not to confuse immediate cash in hand with an actual reduction in tax burden.
