April 15th Deadline !!!

Did you do you taxes on time, or just don't really care, do you try to avoid the fees and penalties by getting it done by April 15th?

I do my taxes as quickly as I can. Waiting for the paperwork in the mail is the worst part.  Gotta have those W-2's.

Then I file electronically, and usually have them back within days.  $$$


My taxes are simple. Single, and I dont own anything.

Theres a little Casino Bar & Grill here, i can't remember the name of it, i think it was called Chubbys or something.. but what was so neat about it was, if you bring in anything stamped from the post office on April 15th you got 2 free drinks. The concept was called something like "beat the deadline". It was a way to have you relax and say.. Wheeeewww it's over, and my taxes are done and sent!!! Now i can have a drink and relax

The next year I am going to do just to a section where they say "Let us do it" as I have made mistakes in the previous 2 years which they caught and fixed and gave me more money then expected!!!

But normally I "Get 'er done" asap..That's MY MONEY!!!

I always have to pay and usually file an extension.  But this year I am right on time.  Did them today and mailed today.  No standing in line at the P.O. for me!  Feels good to have them done and over with early for a change.

Always do early....'cause I get money back

we owe every year, for back taxes that dh ignored before we got together, and he's still paying on it.  soooo... i hate tax time.  maybe one day I will see a return though.

I have been using the same place to do my taxes for the last 13 years so I just give them my paper works and it's done.
This was the first time ever I had to pay IRS... :'( Paid $2469...that hurts but well...it's done and done.

Geeez wnanhee... sorry to hear that, that must of hurt.. ouch ouch ouch, i think the most i ever had to pay in was 900.00, and that sucked terribly, i tried everything to get it lowered.. there was just no way around it...

One time I received  demand letters from IRS saying that I owe them over $16.000
Of course I freaked out even before I read the letters...
According to the letters, my ex. who has never been a father to my daughter, claimed my daughter for the last 13 years and I need to pay the fines....anyway, I had to send them over 400 pages of documents and over 50 pages of my personal letters...lol they probably didn't even read...ha ha ha....but I received the letter back from them and said that I owe them nothing....
I don't know if he had done the same thing again for the last three years but I am not worried any more...so that's a relief.
