tax return help

[Almond Joy]

hi

i dont do my taxes but my parents file them for me. my last year tax return for 2011 check was about 200$ or less. and now that I got my tax return check for 2012, it is over $600+ less than $800. is this a mistake? are tax return checks accurate?

They're usually accurate depending on what you claim or write off.
