With tax day upon us, three in four Americans expect to file on time by today’s (Monday) deadline, and most who file expect a refund from the federal government.
According to a new CBS News Poll, 47% said the amount they pay in taxes is “about right” while 45% said it was “more” than their fair share.
8% responded they feel like they pay “less” than their fair share.
The poll also showed that among those expecting a refund, 37% plan to use it to pay bills or debts, 31% will save or invest it, 18% will spend it on everyday items, and only 6% plan to use it for something fun.
