Re: Tax Returns!
 
I claimed 1 last year and I had to pay ftl, so this year I calaimed 0 and I am hopeing to about 1 grand to go towards wheels. I made alot more this year than last year, so it was smarter to claim 0. I would rather claim 0 and save an extra 5 dollars, that way I get alot more back and save some...cut back on eating out and your good to go...

I am excited as this is the first year my parents are not claiming me. Yes, I am well aware... So, I should get a nice tax return this year. In the past, due to thier income, I have always allowed them to claim me. Figured it was the least I could do for them, since they have supported me for 15-20 years.

As for the extra money, savings. I already have a nice 401k setup, but I wanna have a nice account on the side as well. I just bought a new car, so thats covered. I am excited for tax time this year!

Nothing too wild. 07 Mazda3 SP23. I was gonna go for the MS3 but I just didnt want all the addtional costs. Higher sitcker price, higher insurance, premium gas...blah blah. The car is nice though, the bigger engine, 5 spd, mp3 port, etc. Plus, I was able to get special s-plan pricing, just over invoice.

Just go to irs.gov and look at either the Pub 17 or the 1040 instructions should also have the table. Visit MN Rev site for MN taxes.

Federal

State

Damn I'm getting back a lot more than I planned, ~$1900. Guess I didn't plan real well this year, but I think a lot of it had to do with graduating college and starting a career.

Sweet, I probably won't get as back as much as I hoped, school doesn't seem to help all that much. Or at least it didn't last year.

If they are mailing it you should have it by Friday, or Weds if hand-delivered.

Halon 01-28-2007 06:35 PM

Re: Tax Returns!
 
THey told us they would be mailed the week of the 22nd. Ya, that probably translates to 5pm on Friday evening they dropped them in the mail box, the bastards.

Jana 01-28-2007 07:04 PM

Re: Tax Returns!
 
They have until Jan 31, and most companies wait until then so they can get as many changes in as needed, to avoid sending any W2 revisions. I'm still waiting on mine... and a few other places so it's not like I'm in a big hurry.

I just hope I get money back, and that I don't have to pay in.

Kracka 01-28-2007 07:14 PM

Re: Tax Returns!
 
I'm glad all 3 of my W-2's and other tax forms came early this year. I also like how fast e-filing and direct deposit get the money into the bank account. I think last year I had my money in 3 days.

FattyBoomBatty 01-28-2007 07:20 PM

Re: Tax Returns!
 
I hope I get some back, but I'm scared about filing now that i've taken out my first loans for school. Hmm.

If I get a bunch, I might get either a fmic or a set of rear tires. I want a fmic for the new setup, but i need tires that will put up with some spinning. baldies ftl.

Took care of my taxes a couple days ago. $2400, and I'm not sure if I should be car shopping, parts shopping, or banking for tuition. Thinking I might just keep it in the bank for when a really nice car comes along, since I'm really not in a huge hurry to replace any of my cars. Although I'm keeping an eye out for a nicer Colt and nicer VR4.

Cool, sounds good! I'm giving the Laser a cheap paint job, spending a few hundred on S2k parts, and putting the rest into savings/investments.

Any of you married folks know if its much harder to file now? I have been filing my self the last few years, but I got married this year and am wondering how that effects everything.

Haha, Luke was the right hand man in the clutch job. He knows the Laser better than me, maybe.

I want to see that thing shine, Chris.:D

A co-worker just showed me this site. It's what he always uses. Anywho, it's the cheapest one I've seen yet. I think I'm going to be giving it a try.

With some stock sale and school shit I think I will give turbo tax a try and see how it goes opposed to getting them done elsewhere and waiting on someone else.

Well just got done with my taxes for the most part. All I have to do is print and mail out a form I have to sign. I used that TaxACT site. Fairly easy to use. I've used turbotax in the past, and turbotax was a hair easier. The only thing I didn't like about TaxACT is that I have to sign something and send it in. But for 16 bux, I'm not complaining. I should have my $6200 return in 1-2 weeks, directly deposited into my checking. Damn I love mortgage deductions, WOOHOO!!!

Jed 01-30-2007 09:19 AM

$6200!! Wow very nice. How in the hell do you manage that much? :D I was able to scrounge up $2600 after itemizing and I thought that was great. :banana:

I won't be surprise if 6k will not be dispurse to you. The IRS might ask you to provide more proof.

Re: Tax Returns!
 
yeah, That's the biggest return I've ever seen. Big Ups B.

I was tinkering with this tax calculator:

Not sure how it's going to work out this year for me. If I do get money back, it's going for my new purse that I've been saving for. I ended having to use the money I was saving for to use for unexpected bills, so I'd really like to get my purse now. It's not even that much for it, but I'd like to get the matching accessories for it too... which'll total about $500 :)

HiImBrian 01-30-2007 01:07 PM

Re: Tax Returns!
 
Holy shit! $500 for a purse? You wont have any money left over to put in it!
