In previous years I've gotten it back as quickly as a few days.

I e-filed last Wednesday, and should have my refund direct-deposited by Friday.

got mine done last wednesday and got my federal tax refund back...i'm expecting my state refund check any day now. my landlady gave me my renter's refund slip earlier tonight (along with a note about how the rent's gonna increase starting april 1st ) so i gotta go and have that done. the sucky thing about the renter's refund is that i ain't gonna get the refund back for that until august.

and here i was hoping you'd say "downpayment on my motorcycle" or something like that.

I havent even started mines but I will planned to them next Saturday. It is going to be a long day since I am self-employed and I have to sorted out and recorded so many stuff over the last year receipts, reporting the info of my 1099, ...

Please! I am into those creeps for thousands... they'll have to wait till the extensions are filed!

DAMN, you guys are fast I have to prepay so I'm in no hurry to file since I ain't getting a damn dime back

I got my W2 last week, but I'm waiting for the bank statement thingy. Then I'll send it all to the accountant.

I am in the same boat...a zillion figures to get together to take to the CPA...dealing with the deductions for this and that can really give one a headache.

What are taxes?

Then we locked eyes and I knew I was in there
And I was gonna tear ya ass up

to those of you who have filed your taxes already.

I STILL have not received my W-2 or my bank statement yet. Don't know what the hold-up is, but I'm getting very impatient over here. Now if I knew that I was going to have to pay Uncle Sam money instead of getting money back, that would be a whole different story.

Legally, they have to issue them by January 31.

Really? Well, damn they better get to steppin, it's February 2nd already.

nope not yet. i'm such a slacker

i'm meeting with my tax guy this weekend

Yeah. I'll be getting a few hundred back.

I'd be getting a little more back if I weren't married. I really need to figure out that divorce paperwork.

filed last week, got my tax refund today, and paid off my credit cards already.

Will probably complete and electronically file my federal return this weekend. We don’t have a state income tax in Washington -- I’m glad I don't have to do a state return anymore.

My return isn't terribly complicated, but it does involve a little extra work on my part. To make a long story short, one of the tax forms I receive every year is, by the issuer’s own admission, not necessarily accurate, and under the federal tax code, it doesn't have to be. And the issuer basically says, "That’s your problem -- go look at IRS Publication No. XXX and figure it out yourself." So I have to look at my records and do exactly that.

STILL no W-2 and bank statement. WTF, now I'm REALLY starting to get pissed. What the hell?

call your employer and ask them
they should know it was due two days ago

You will just spend your refund on Prince again..lol

heartbeatocean said:

Oh believe me, I'm going to. This is ridiculous!

That's where you're dead wrong. The only thing I spend my money on with Prince is the occasional concert ticket or when his new CD comes out. I don't spend money on him like I used to.
