Default So, who has done their taxes?

So, it is Monday, April 14th. Who has done their taxes? Who is waiting to drive out to the Airport mail center at 10pm on Tuesday to turn them in on time?

If you are sure you are getting a refund, dont worry about it and file late. No reason to rush to file by tomorrow at midnight.

And if you are going to owe, penalties are pretty minimal.

The whole rush to the post office thing is vastly overrated.

Who the hell does their own taxes? You must be poor.

Just got an e-mail from my CPA. I owe Federal and will get some back from the State.

This year was very, very painful. I need to spend more time on internet boards.

I just got the dreaded phone call from the CPA last night. As he put it, the good news is I made more this year than last. The bad news is, my quarterly tax estimates did not even sniff how much I actually owe.

My wife and I visted a tax bracket we won't likely see again for a long time...so we owed, but got a little bit back from the state, and should get some in June or whenever the money is supposed to come from Bush's plan.

Got my tax return in February as well. The new baby & our mortgage surely benefited us in terms of taxes. I've since adjusted my exemptions so we shouldn't see that kind of return again anytime soon.
