Description
See http://taxsim.nber.org/out2psl/1173
TA and PE agree on tax and credits, but neither include the "kicker" rebate. See
https://www.oregon.gov/dor/programs/individuals/pages/kicker.aspx
The formula is given under the heading "How do I calculate...".
The kicker seems to be 9.863% of tax before credits or $582 and is paid in 2025 or 2026 based on the 2024 return.
