anonemouse 1 Posted April 15, 2008 I'm bad. I haven't actually finished mine yet. I have one more thing left to do. I need to go to my bank and see how much interest I earned last year, and then I can file. Next year? Gonna do them as soon as I get my forms in the mail, before I can lose the damned things like I do every other year. Of course, I said that LAST year, too, LMAO!

heartfire 4 Posted April 15, 2008 Ummm, Lauren, you DO know it's the 14th, right? :huh2: JK!!! I feel for ya. We had a snafu this year and not only didn't get filed by the end of Feb like normal BUT instead of e-filing, we had to send paper via mail. By the time we got it all figured out and ready to go, it's the weekend and I couldn't get to the PO before they closed on Sat at noon. Sooo, this AM I drag my DD with me and head to the PO to get the buggers out TODAY along with cert. mail/return receipt to make sure they get them and I've got proof! (I know it's no guarantee but they also can't say they never got them either!) So, you are totally NOT alone!! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
MacMadame 81 Posted April 15, 2008 I still haven't done mine from 2006. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
babygrl1234 6 Posted April 15, 2008 I turned mine in on January 17th lol. Had my refund by Feb 1st. Now this of course has never ever happened before since I am a giant procrastinator. Now as for DH's (we file seperatly) I will be finishing those up today lmao. I have the federal done but still have to finish the state. Speaking of 06 taxes, I had apparently forgotten something on mine and the IRS sent me this worksheet to fix it. This was back in like Nov. or somthing. Well I got the check yesterday and apparently it was a larger mistake than I expected because the check was for $700!!!!! I heart tax refunds. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
anonemouse 1 Posted April 15, 2008 Well, hell. If I'd known it would take only a few minutes to do everything, I'd have slept longer this morning. Oh, well. I got everything filed and taxes paid and everything. I turned mine in on January 17th lol. Had my refund by Feb 1st. Now this of course has never ever happened before since I am a giant procrastinator. Now as for DH's (we file seperatly) I will be finishing those up today lmao.

This was back in like Nov. or somthing. Well I got the check yesterday and apparently it was a larger mistake than I expected because the check was for $700!!!!! I heart tax refunds. I'm getting a return from the state, but not from federal. I get to pay them $127, so by the time I add everything up, I'm only getting back about $80.

ReadySteadyGo 8 Posted April 15, 2008 I have to amend mine by today. yikes Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
anonemouse 1 Posted April 15, 2008 I have to amend mine by today. yikes I'm probably going to have to amend my 2007 return next year, since I had surgery and everything in 2007. I waited too long this year to try and dig up my medical bills and crap, so I just didn't claim them. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

This year we actually got a little bit back, usually we don't or we have to pay back... so this year I did it right away... otherwise I wait also till the last minute.... so you are not alone dear...

MacMadame 81 Posted April 16, 2008 We just finished 2006 and will file an extension for 2007. I still have some numbers to find for it and I can't get to it today. Getting the 2006 out is a HUGE step though. There was a time there I thought I'd have rob my (ex) accountant's house to get my records back. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Shalee04 7 Posted April 16, 2008 This is actually the first year I have been prepared in January. With my surgery, the twin's oral surgeries along with various medical expenses, premiums,ect. I knew that for once we would be able to claim something for the medical expenses. We got some back and I think I will put someof it away for my TT that I want.

Ninja 0 Posted April 16, 2008 I'm actually looking forward to paying taxes next year, as I'll have mucho deductions for medical expenses, between my surgery (self-pay) and its related expenses and about $4000 in unexpected dental work (no dental insurance), along with a couple thousand worth of other minor medical issues. Of course, I have to go through the pain of actually laying out those expenses first, but it makes me feel a tiny bit better to know that I should be getting back several thousand next year.
