    Except you’re ignoring tax credits. There are a slew of tax credits that only apply at certain income levels and below. It is very possible that you can suddenly no longer qualify for a credit by getting a small raise which is less than what the credit would have given you.

    Always consult a tax advisor.

      Ah sorry, I live in a country where we don’t require every single citizen to hire an accountant to file their taxes.

      My condolences.
