Nice. Mine took 1 week for the state, and 1 week and 2 days for my Federal.

**Kracka** · 02-09-2007

3 days state, 1 week 5 days for federal.

AJ · 02-09-2007

We got our state in 3 days and federal should be here sometime next week. Yay for Turbo Tax and double YAY for school, I ended up getting over 2k back.

Hey, since I do not own a home, but rent instead, I am entitled to a renter's refund. Does anyone know when/how I file this? I know its not directly tied into the tax information, but any addtional help would be great. Thanks!

You should get a certificate from your landlord. You have to fill out a seperate form from your basic taxes.

That's about all I know though. I've never bothered to send them in...

You are missing out on a lot of money. In TurboTax I just had to fill the amount in, I guess the checks come a lot later, like May - August.

True. Unfortunately they never seem to end up in my posession so it's a PITA to track down. Oh well.

I will be finally taking advantage of this this year. Yes, you are correct, you will get the check at the time of your county's property tax deadline.

You can file it now or you can file it when your county has their property taxes, it is usually easier to do it now since you have all of your paperwork in front of you.

Ah...cool. So the fact that I did not do the paperwork with my other taxes is no big deal then. Phew... I was worried I would not be eligible since I have already turned in my other tax info. Anyone know where I can get the forms for the renter's refund? I doubt I make too much to not get something back as I only pull down about 40k a year.

Anywhere with income tax forms will have the forms for property taxes. I am not sure what it is called since I havent done it yet.

For renter's, it depends on your income. I always made too much, so I always got screwed and didn't get anything back.

I did not know about this, maybe I won't get a check

Any idea what the income cut-off is?

If your adjusted gross income was over 49k then you will for sure get zero back if you rent. Even if you spent 20k in rent.

If it's 45k, then you'll have to have more than $1600 as the number on the CRP form to get anything back.

If it's 40k, then you'll have to have more than $1300.

bluntedelvis · 02-12-2007

Getting back $2,200 and donating $1,750 to LSE. Get ready guys the Eclipse from hell is comming back hahaha. Southbend clutch, ARP headstuds, performance valves, and some other go fast goodies. "I have a spending problem" Ohhhh well its only $$$$ and you only live once.. Drive fast, take chances, or how else are you going to know your living LARGE...

**asshanson** · 02-12-2007

My federal return was accepted today, I will be getting $1300 from them next Friday, the 23rd. And in the next few days when Minnesota accepts the return it'll be another $400.

Too bad it's all for bills and none for fun.

A//// Guy · 02-12-2007

Yea I got mine and its gone already... damnit!

AJ · 02-12-2007

I've already spent the state, but the fed still has goodies waiting. I think I'm going to pass on wheels and such and just get s few things to make the car more enjoy able on long trips (tinted window, sirius, ect) and the put the rest into savings.

**Kracka** · 02-12-2007

Going to keep your stock tires then and swap them back on come spring?

AJ · 02-12-2007

Probably not since 1 was trashed and I don't want to just replace 1 tire. I prefer to change all 4. So I will probably just buy 4 new tires and call it done for a while. We will see come spring.

TireRack has a tire shaving machine and can shave a single tire to the same tread depth as your remaining tires. Although if the remaining 3 are already worn way down you may as well get 4. Just throwing it out as another option.
