Crony Capitalism and Using The State to Cheat Your Customers

[wkmac]

In my experience the IRS actually has great customer service. I had to deal with them a lot when I started my company and everyone I dealt with was very helpful.

Having just this morning written a check to the US Treasury for an additional $4500 I feel I'm entitled to subject the IRS and the US gov't to any form of HUMOR I feel like.

You're way ahead of me. Just doing my taxes this weekend.

You both are way behind me. Taxes e-filed in late January and refunds deposited in early February.

Yeah I begrudgingly put them in the mail this morning. Best wishes on your weekend's work.

I'll just pay every year as I'd rather keep more money and let it work for me over the course of the year instead of giving Uncle Sam an interest free loan.

My combined refunds were less than $500.

My spouse is a CPA yet I get the honor of doing our taxes just about every year.

Do you piss her off by using store bought tax software?

Yuuup.
Turbo Tax Premier.

Am using credit karmas free software for my daughter because she had income from four states last year.

Is the Credit Karma tax prep really free?

I looked at credit karma but although free they want to track too much personal information. Instead I used HR Block which was also totally free.

It is free but you have to agree to get spammed by ads.

Even for current members? I use them for my credit score only.

I don't know about current members but they are the new kid in tax preparation and really are free (although annoying).

I can make that $500 into a $1000 but if it works for ya!

 

[UpstateNYUPSer(Ret)]

I use H&R Block as well. I receive $10 off the digital download as a returning user. My new laptop does not have CD capability.

Will I have to listen to one of your hours long lectures?

You could buy an external CD drive for about $20 so not a big issue. I used HR Block free online so didn't need to download anything.

 

[wkmac]

Will I have to listen to one of your hours long lectures?

Nope, not offering you a thing other than to say, keep doing what you are doing if that works for ya.

Yes. Totally free. I am also a current member for credit score/monitoring so they already have all my personnel information.

Turbo Tax charges extra for more than one state software download and then $29 for each state e-filed. Not paying them those charges when I can do it for free.

 

[It will be fine]

How do you claim you can get a 100% return on any investment in 1 year? Bet on red?
