Hi Guys.

If my standard deduction (single) is higher than adjusted gross income my taxable income is 0.00. Can i obtain a refund, how does its works?

what will be the amount on line 41, form 1040?

Best regard.

    If the standard deduction exceeds your AGI, then Line 41 is zero, yes.

    Your standard deduction filing single is the "LESSER" of $6,100 or your earned income plus $350.

    This has nothing to do with a refund. You can not get back more taxes than you paid in, as shown on your W-2 in box 2.  You are never refunded social security and medicare (boxes 4 and 6).

    If your taxable income is zero, you'll get any withholding refunded back, but having zero taxable income doesn't give you a refund.
