so basically, they take the amount of tax you pay on a "Z" (i think it's about $3,000 for base plus sports... not 100%) and deduct that from your gross income for the year and you are only taxed on the remaining...

so you are not actually getting$3,000 back, just getting taxed less.

still better than i was expecting in the first place, so it's still great!
