Superbowl =

I haven't had a refund since 1993

 

[MissVelvetDress_75]

i don't care about the Superbowl. i have not received my tax stuff yet. i doubt i will get a refund. i never do anymore, i always have to pay. i think the last time i did was back in 1997. i am going to seek help from HR Block down the street to see if they can do something about that for me this year. i want $$$$ back damnit!

You should claim 0 to guarantee a return at the end of the year.

True, but then the government gets, essentially, an interest-free loan for 12 months. Putting the right exemption amount (i.e., "1" for single) will give you a smaller refund, but you get a larger paycheck every pay period.

I guess it is a tradeoff.

Grrrrrr...
...to all of you who have your taxes done already.

I think I'm doing mine next weekend. I hope I get something back, I probably will but it will be small since I only worked 2 weeks last year.


Last year I got over $1,000.



the superbowl was tonight?

 

[~LadyLemon~]

I'm missing the game cos I'm at work. Espn.com has been coming in handy for updates. Go Bucs!

*but really I'm pretending not to care cos I'm still pissed about my Steelers*

 

[Hallelujah Here She Comes]

i have not received my tax stuff yet.

Neither have I.

 

[meegannie]

I haven't gotten my forms yet either. And on my telefile things, they spelled my name wrong.

Yes well, I had figured it out that if I claimed 1 I would get like an extra $40 on my paycheck every two weeks. I would much rather be guaranteed a nice tax return rather than risking having to pay.

Uh how would you get a tax return if you didnt work?

 

[melon]

FYI, if you qualify, you can file your taxes electronically for free. For instance, if you have an Adjusted Gross Income of $27,000 or less, you can file your federal and state income taxes through Intuit (TurboTax & Quicken creator).

A few people told me I will probably get something because when I filed for unemployment, I elected to have the tax taken out. So therefore, I got a W2 or whatever the hell they are, from both my job and the unemployment offices.

When I worked for two days in Kentucky over Christmas break during my last year of college, I got a tax return of like $1.

I use the Quicken Tax Freedom thing to file my sister's taxes...and it just kills me that this year she's getting back $3,500 federal and $495 state when I never get a refund at all.

Its not fair I tell ya

 

[Bonochick]

Dad and I watched the Superbowl...I mostly watch for the commercials.

Taxes? My dad does mine for me.

 

[HelloAngel]

Yay Tampa Bay! (sorrie.. I just am so laughing at my screaming neighborhood right now! )

 

[U2SavesTheWorld]

My account told me today that I have to pay. Again.

 

[meegannie]

I can't wait to do my taxes! It's like Christmas when I found out how much money I get back. Except I have to file in both Maryland AND DC this year and I have to fill out the FAFSA and I have no idea how to get my loan.

The Bandwagon has officially pulled into South Florida....I guess it was bound to happen....

That'll probably be m, but hey-it's cash!!!

 

[zonelistener]

Little afraid that I didn't pay taxes while collecting unemployment for those three months. Hopefully I still get a good return.

 

[meegannie]

I got my forms back. Somehow I made more last year than my salary. I don't understand taxes.

 

[meegannie]

I REALLY don't understand taxes!! I'm getting a TINY refund this year compared to last year.
