CPW: Death and Taxes (but mostly just taxes)

RockABye · February 2014

Have you done your taxes yet? Do you get a refund or do you owe??

zamboni00 · February 2014

I got a refund every year until 2006. I owed for 3 years, darn radio winnings and Zamboni driving. Then it was back to refund until we got married. So I just assume we will owe.

Should have our refund in about 2 weeks.

islandmonkey8 · February 2014

We're getting ours done next Saturday. I hope for a refund and my flip if we owe.

Our guy has gotten us a good refund the last couple of years, so I'd be piiiiissed if we didn't get one again this year.

I just need to compile all my mileage for promo work last year, and then we can set up our appt to get it done!

I have mine almost done, but am not going to file them until April since we owe again. I never owed in my life until last year, but owed both last year and this year boo :-( At least next year we will finally have some deductions to take!

RockABye · February 2014

Ours are done but not filed yet. We're thinking about getting them done by someone else (no idea who yet) just to double check against Turbo Tax. Something seems... off. We owe a lot, either way, but the amount doesn't add up in our heads. Thankfully, we knew we'd owe this year so we held enough money back. I just want to be sure we don't OVER pay.

We live in Oregon, so we get to pay taxes on our taxes. We have no deductions and have no reason to itemize, so it is what it is. I miss refunds

We used our 2011 tax refund to move to Oregon. The irony does not escape me.

I haven't started them yet (soon!). Last year we got an itsy bitsy refund; this year I'm just hopeful we don't owe.

mrshall1027 · February 2014

I've owed for the past 5 or so years. We also owed last year with our first time filing. I changed up our withholding, so hopefully it's less this year but we haven't started yet so I have no idea.

No clue. This will be the first year I file jointly with someone and we're still waiting on some of DH's investment stuff to come in. I have a sneaking suspicion, though, that we'll owe.

LooneyLife · February 2014

Done, refunds received and spent

BreMae · February 2014

I have no idea what to expect this year. I owed last year, he got a refund. This year we file jointly and have two homes to claim, once of which we turned in to a rental. I'm really hoping we will get a refund thanks to our rental. Guess we will find out Saturday morning!

We had ours completed on Saturday and are getting a refund but it's a small one. We owed last year so I'm not complaining.

Here too. Not quite spent, we are saving some of it for vacation in March.

Ours went to (almost) paying off DH's car. Not very fun, but the sooner it's paid off the sooner I can get a new car which is fun.

If we don't get a refund, I'm going to scream. Out loud. In the middle of an office.

brij2006 · February 2014

We still need to file, and I need to finish my deductions from my regular job. We usually get money back, but this year my commissions and bonuses were double last year. So hopefully I have enough deductions to not owe.

BruinsBabe33 · February 2014

We got a refund. I've only ever had to pay once.

Working for the government means that my employer knows exactly what to deduct

I generally get a couple hundred dollars back. Just enough for a hooker and some blow.

Mustard76 · February 2014

We owe every year. It's annoying, but it's not worth changing our withholding. We save money out of every paycheck, so it works out in the end. Better than letting Uncle Sam hold my money for the year.

LittleLady77 · February 2014

We are half way done and this is the first time we will get a refund in years. It's such a relief.

I feel like we (canadians) typically have more accurate deductions. I have no idea why this is. I don't know many people, except those that are self employed and don't have deductions, that owe.

DH usually over pays because he has extra deductions due to working multiple jobs and then he gets it back.

Done and getting a refund. Paying off two credit cards, finishing up some house projects, putting a portion into savings and whatever's left is fun money.

lfk2013 · February 2014

I talked to DH about it last night...because of the partnership he has in the family farm and the fact that they always seem to get the investment stuff late, looks like we may have to file an extension. Awesome. It really bothers me that I can't do them already.
