Tax Refund

[Hoosier Cowboy]

Anyone gotten one back already? Had 3 people at work already receive them in about a weeks time. I did mine on Turbo Tax and was given the estimated 3 week date.

If I did I wouldn't admit to it for fear I'd be ridiculed for giving the government a free loan

This^^^ I generally try to keep my money for as long as I can before I have to give it to the government on April 15.

I had very small returns from both the state and Fed.

I filed on Jan. 18th using Turbo Tax. My state return was in the bank on Jan 30th. The Fed was on the 31st.

Filed mine with H&R block at home on my phone on the 31st. State is in the mail as of yesterday, and being as i claim Earned income credit it says the feds aren't shipping those out till mid February

Did it a week and a half ago, had it credited Saturday, released last night.

I haven't even gotten my W2s from work yet.

I wish, haven’t had a refund in years, writing big checks 15APR is my usual.

 

[darkkevin]

got mine yesterday, i usually try not to get a return but a new home this year threw off my estimate.

Had to pay Federal 35 bucks (cut it a little to close this year). Still waiting on my state return. Just filed VIA Turbo Tax last week

If i had my way, we'd eliminate withholding and make people write a check monthly or some such. Of course, I'll never get my way because there would be massive underpayment and a revolt.

For your consideration?
I watched a news segment and they said there is a good reason for filing your taxes as early as possible (even if you don't get a return) It lessens the chance of the scumbag identity thieves from filing under your ss# Sounds like it makes sense to me. FWIW.

True this, I have a buddy dealing with this right now. So far he's out close to 5k on the return plus the costs associated with fighting/getting it corrected. Identity thieves should be treated much like a murderer.

I have this dream where someone steals my identity and pays my due taxes.

I had the same dream, except it was a nightmare, they stole my identity, and got a refund!

I'm among the "I always owe at the end of the year" crowd.

I could go for that! I bet if people got paid without the withholding and then had to write a check each month we'd see some changes, that's for sure!

I'm getting my usual amount back from Fed. Usually owe the State, but this year I'm getting $18 back.
