| Every year when I'm doing my taxes I end up furious. Who's with me? Post your rage here. |
|
Quoted: Quoted: Paying my taxes doesn't really piss me off. People at the grocery store paying with food stamps? Yeah, that does it. Along with any number of other wastes of money. You are not paying enough the comrade.  Oh, I'm paying plenty. I won't be getting a refund.  But it's still the waste and entitlements that infuriates me. I don't mind buying F-22's and aircraft carriers. |

Quoted: Every year on the 15 of April you pay taxes or the irs comes after you..........so when did congress pass a balance budget and they got their hand out to be payed...wonder if the irs is going after the wrong people....   More is coming. |

Quoted:
I don't get mad really, but it hurts. You didn't get mad on the PA tax return when it asked you to itemize EACH internet purchase you made (by amount and date) for 2011? 
I still haven't filed ... in part because of the above question. I am still trying to get all that information.

The rage comes after the wife finishes her portion, then turns the computer over to me.
I enter income info, and a nice green refund goes down the tube into a devastating red total. Then, I look over my stack of receipts and invoices knowing there's a tough and uncertain road ahead. |

Quoted:
Turbotax calms me down. I bought a CD version of Turbotax this year. When it said my refund was going to be $x,000, I knew something was wrong. I went on TurboTax online and got a refund of $1xx instead. I'm fairly sure the latter is the correct version; something is seriously wrong with Turbotax if they can't get their own software to agree (and yes, I did run the update process on the CDROM version of TT).

We find that its worked well for us in the decade or so we've been using it. You also have to pre-plan to maximize whatever deductions you can throughout the year. We always get receipts for charitable donations etc now, where before we'd often just donate without getting a receipt. |

Quoted: Quoted: It pisses me off so bad that I don't even file till 4/15! I never get a refund and have to pay about a K extra..........I don't want to let them use my money free for a year. Taxes are due 4/17 this year  It's amazing how gov't employees get a paid holiday for something most people don't know about. |
