Jim Alfredson Posted April 12, 2004 Report Posted April 12, 2004 As of today, no... but they are in the hands of my new taxman. I'm hoping he'll save my ass this year. Quote
wesbed Posted April 12, 2004 Report Posted April 12, 2004 My taxes are still not done. Today is Sunday... taxes are due on Thursday. I still have three more evenings to deal with them. Plenty o' time. Quote
Rooster_Ties Posted April 12, 2004 Report Posted April 12, 2004 The wife and I finished ours about a week ago (for the record - she did 'em -- she's a lot better with forms than I am). We usually wait until sometime around mid-March, but one year we actually got them done about a week after we got our W2's in the mail (probably the first week in February). Of course, that was back when we could both still file the EZ form (and before we were married), probably around 1998 or so. Quote
scottb Posted April 12, 2004 Report Posted April 12, 2004 Mine are done and "Yes Virginia, there is a Santa Claus!!!" To the tune of nearly $60,000!!!!! I should be hearing from the IRS auditors any day now but my accountant says it's legit. I hope so because I really don't look good in orange. Quote
Jim Alfredson Posted April 12, 2004 Report Posted April 12, 2004 Holy shit. Can I borrow some money?! Or can I come work for you? Quote
RDK Posted April 12, 2004 Report Posted April 12, 2004 Well, sorta. My wife and I met with our accountant a few weeks ago and everything is done but the signing of the forms. But then on Friday, Sheri receives another 1099 statement from an employer! Quote
RDK Posted April 12, 2004 Report Posted April 12, 2004 Y'know, SS1, that Lee Morgan cover must be the *most versatile* of all the BN album covers... Quote
vibes Posted April 12, 2004 Report Posted April 12, 2004 My wife and I wanted our refund ASAP, so I did our taxes in late January, if I remember correctly. We got our state and federal refunds by mid-February. I do our taxes online at H&R Block's website every year because we don't have anything complicated to worry about - we don't own a home, have no investments outside of my 401k, and have minimal charitable contributions. Doing our taxes online doesn't even take me 30 minutes. Quote
sheldonm Posted April 12, 2004 Report Posted April 12, 2004 I did ours at the end of January and have already received my small refund. We like to keep the refunds to a minimum and have the extra money on each pay check. No sense in giving the government an interest loan every year! Mark Quote
Dan Gould Posted April 12, 2004 Report Posted April 12, 2004 Considering the refund we're getting, we should have done ours back in January. But with electronic filing, we'll probably have it just in time for the second mortgage payment (only 358 to go then!) Quote
A Lark Ascending Posted April 12, 2004 Report Posted April 12, 2004 What happened to the days when you people got really pro-active about taxmen and started dressing up as indians and throwing things in harbours? Quote
AfricaBrass Posted April 12, 2004 Report Posted April 12, 2004 What happened to the days when you people got really pro-active about taxmen and started dressing up as indians and throwing things in harbours? We've become sheep. Baaaaa. Quote
Dan Gould Posted April 12, 2004 Report Posted April 12, 2004 What happened to the days when you people got really pro-active about taxmen and started dressing up as indians and throwing things in harbours? Since we now have taxation with representation, we are not moved to do this anymore. Also, I don't like tea. Quote
jack Posted April 12, 2004 Report Posted April 12, 2004 Finished them last month. Will mail it in at the last minute. Quote
jazzbo Posted April 12, 2004 Report Posted April 12, 2004 Almost done. The final copy must be made and then they must be mailed. Probably be mailed tomorrow morning. Whew! Quote
Soulstation1 Posted April 12, 2004 Author Report Posted April 12, 2004 (edited) we should all throw our mosaics in the pacific ocean as a protest. please remove your weed from the hidden tray ss1 Edited April 12, 2004 by Soulstation1 Quote
danasgoodstuff Posted April 12, 2004 Report Posted April 12, 2004 Got mine done about 2 days ago. I guess I should thank W that the basic deduction for married filing jointly is now enuff ($9,500) that I don't have to itemize (what with a 'modest home' and a variable rate mortgage). I would've come out about the same, but it so much easier to just take the basic, and they can't argue...Of course, the state and local are a 'nother matter. Quote
scottb Posted April 12, 2004 Report Posted April 12, 2004 Wouldn't want to pollute the Pacific, why not just pile them up on the doorstep of 3427 Jasper Lane. Quote
Adam Posted April 12, 2004 Report Posted April 12, 2004 Finishing them tonight! (if all goes well.) Quote
connoisseur series500 Posted April 13, 2004 Report Posted April 13, 2004 Also, I don't like tea. Shame on you, Dan! I like tea but hate taxes. Quote
connoisseur series500 Posted April 13, 2004 Report Posted April 13, 2004 Got mine done close to a month ago. I pay my kid's school fees from my refunds, so I try to get them done as quickly as possible. Quote
Soulstation1 Posted April 13, 2004 Author Report Posted April 13, 2004 i think i'll file my extension tomorrow the procrastinator1 Quote
wesbed Posted April 13, 2004 Report Posted April 13, 2004 i think i'll file my extension tomorrow the procrastinator1 This made me laugh. A nice play on words, ss1. Quote
