Announcement! I have now downloaded and installed Turbo Tax!

[crispini]

Furthermore, I have gotten as far as making one (1!) tax-based decision, namely, that I will accept the standard $30 refund for the Federal Telephone Excise Tax, rather than putting myself through all of the drama and angst of downloading approximately 10,000 old phone bills from AT&T's website.

However, I can't contemplate getting up and going to look for my W2's at the moment, so I am done until a fresh burst of energy appears.

Done your taxes yet?

1. oh cripes. I had forgotten all about taxes

Guess I know what I'll be doing *next* weekend.

2. Umm...*checks calendar*

You should be getting a refund, no? Being a homeowner and all?

I did my taxes back in February. Spent the refund on a new a/c and furnace. :D

6. I should have done them long ago, yes.

I am horribly lazy. :D

[GOPisEvil]

9. Me too, but I want my damn money!

:D

[Droopy]

3. You better hurry!

I did my taxes in March and that is the latest I've ever done them. I had a feeling that I was going to owe this year which probably accounts for the delay. It turned out that my tax bill for local, state, and federal combined was about $1700.

4. I used Turbo Tax for both Federal and State

this year- I spent very little time and money, and I got nice returns on both. An excellent experience and it was less painful than most other years.

7. I adore Turbo Tax!

It's the finding of the paperwork that is the problem. :P

[undeterred]

10. I only had 3 pieces to find.

5. I went in to work last Monday and did the entire thing online

at their site. Fed and State was over in 20 minutes.

8. Smiling in mid-April -- already done

I used TurboTax a few weeks ago to do my taxes. It was fairly easy, except for collecting all those little pieces of paper. Even though we keep them in a folder, there always seem to be some missing.

The day after I came down with a bad cold and was out of work for almost two weeks. I hope this was just a coincidence.

We got one of our refunds back already.

11. Did mine yesterday, and I used TurboTax for the first time...

Probably didn't need the software, as our taxes are simple, but I figured I'd get some practice for when we actually have money... :)

12. Both state and federal done, and refunds recieved.

I hate waiting to the last minute.

13. Not yet. I bought a printer and I am doing them tomorrow. Yuk!

I always dread this! And put it off until the last possible moment! Usually the day before they are due. This year, I will be "early". :rofl:
