Just did mine. got 1400 back from federal but for the first time ever I owe Illinois $111 dollars. Sucks

 

[Intel]

I will owe 100 bucks like I do every year.

 

[RICH17]

I have always had a 20 dollar or so refund from Illinois that I never claimed. For the last ten years I have had a full time job. And now this year I owe 111? Makes no damn sense. Thanks Obama

Our company STILL hasn't released their W-2's

 

[radioguy6]

yea same here, waiting on my W-2. I re-fied my mortgage and my property taxes went down, so less to write off this time.

 

[skeezer]

Did mine last Friday.

I usually spend my return on retarded things or vacations. Vegas mainly a few times this year.

 

[Chester Copperpot]

Still waiting on my W-2 from work and 1098-T from DeVry. I probably won't be able to file until this weekend or later.

If the w2s are the only thing you're waiting on, you can always use the last check of the year. Gives the same information as the w2. That's what I do when I have to wait on one thing or another. I just make sure I have the correct info, write down everything on a sheet of paper, including expenses and write offs, then go in and get my taxes done.

Went to my aunt last night and turns out I don't get as much as Turbo Tax figured. Turbo tax came back with $6700 something Federal and 600 State. Went to my aunt and came out $1600 less than Turbo Tax, and $300 something less on State. Turbo Tax supposedly looks at all the possible ways to get you money, but according to my aunt, the deductions for both business and towards work (w2s) shouldn't be together on a return (the way Turbo Tax was asking about deductions and reporting them).

Doesn't matter. Last thing I need is for the IRS to come knocking at my door because Turbo Tax was able to get me about $2k more. I rather be a bit more conservative and safe. I should get my Federal income tax return on the 5th of February. State, I have to wait since supposedly there's something going on with it or something.

Wouldn't the chance at $1,900 be worth a second (third?) opinion? I would think that the people at Turbo Tax would be extremely knowledgeable seeing as how large they, and Intuit, are...

This would be the 1st year, I ever did mine myself. Just used H&R block on line. Nothing changed from the past few years of paying $100+ to have them done. Ended up with the normal $1200 in total back. Plus keeping $90 in my pocket from doing them myself.

Federal is filed, accepted and received this today: "Jan 26 - Feb 15 EXPECTED FEDERAL REFUND DELIVERY"

 

[99PONTIACGP]

In typical fashion I'll owe. I have a friend do the paperwork who is an accountant.

Get paid cash from other job then I need to claim it.

At what point can you claim your medical bills? I think I read somewhere it needs to be in the ballpark of 10%-20% worth of your income IIRC.

 

[RICH17]

Claims cash

 

[99PONTIACGP]

Gotta claim it when the employer claims the cash the pay me. What's it called? 1099'd?
