Xavier · 01-22-2009, 04:54 PM

Just got my W-2's today. Now I just need info from school and I can file.

Scapegoat · 01-22-2009, 05:01 PM

i already know i'm going to make a bad investment with my money, however much it is.... probably all going towards the truck

Elliott18t · 01-22-2009, 05:02 PM

mine is either going to school,car, or tv(in that order).. depends on how much I get and If I pay for school first blah blah blah.

agoodall · 01-22-2009, 05:04 PM

93EGY8 · 01-22-2009, 06:08 PM

got mine done last friday, first day irs was open, and i got 1100 back.. which was real nice considering i just had to buy a new stearing box for my damn jeep, *shouldacheckeditoutbeforeiboughtit* lol

Scapegoat · 01-23-2009, 12:43 PM

hey hey hey, where do people go to get their taxes done?

i figure with what i make now, i should probably go see someone so i can get as much back as possible...

Kerplunk105 · 01-23-2009, 12:47 PM

I do mine online with turbotax. I've done it..eh..the past 5 or so years.

twastheglow · 01-23-2009, 12:55 PM

I've used taxact.com for the last 3 or 4 years.

Scapegoat · 01-23-2009, 01:04 PM

i need a person... i been doing it online the last 5-6 years and the numbers are always different... i've been to a few different sites with the same information... and the numbers are different...

my first tax refund was around $1200, and after that i haven't broken $300...

I'd love to get back a few grand this year so i can throw it into getting the truck worked on...

anyone have experience with H&R?

My mom has always used them. She never complains.

Elliott18t · 01-23-2009, 01:06 PM

I know my friend uses them. He likes it as he gets a nice return. But then again he has alot of deductions because he is an electrician and he writes off all his tools etc.

Scapegoat · 01-23-2009, 01:08 PM

i don't really have right offs... i mean... i could maybe right off a portion of rent, electricity, internet access, my computer... all because i use it for "work"... but not really often... not sure if i can actually right this stuff off or not...

Elliott18t · 01-23-2009, 01:10 PM

Yeah i dont have any either so, or at least I dont think I do lol. But since I dont make a whole lot in the first place, I don't feel like forking out money for them to do it. I'll probably try turbo tax this year at least.

Kerplunk105 · 01-23-2009, 01:18 PM

I dont think I right off enough stuff...idk.

exactly... which is why i want to talk to someone

Kerplunk105 · 01-23-2009, 01:21 PM

So, go to H&R. Does your work offer anything? I know mine does but I've never used them.

poolmike · 01-23-2009, 01:30 PM

You folks should go see a private tax accountant. They are usually willing to dig deeper for your deductions. I missed out on alot of money over the years.
