why do taxes suck?

anyone else besides me not done their taxes yet? i always do this, and i hate it every year.

taxes don't count until you're like... eighty.

did you know they have the internet in prison?

ive half done them. im trying to figure out a few more forms relating to my schedule c and my 403(b).

Yes. Taxes suck. But so does not having enough money to have a military.

Now, don't think I'm all pro-war-in-Iraq/Afghanistan...

I'm just saying it's nice to be the proud owners of the F-22 Raptor.

M-60's and aircraft carriers are pretty cool, too.

blargh. i still need to call the irs about the stupid army and the complete lack of w-2's from them at my house.

fta.
fuck taxes too.
dammit.

warning:
your local post office and some libraries no longer carry forms. call ahead.

Tax returns suck because they are deliberately confusing and a pain in the ass to fill out. And you have to rely on your employer not being retarded and forgetting to update your mailing address. Or, if you want to submit them online, like any person with half a brain is likely to do because it reduces the hassle of losing paperwork, you have to pay a fee...ew.

or you might find out that you have to pay because you had more tax liability than you paid...that really sucks...I haven't had it happen to me, but still.

then there is just the general hassle of doing anything related to money.

Haven't done mine yet. W2's from three jobs and having to fiddle around with rent income and interest paid on my house is gonna be about as fun as attacking my own cock with a staple gun.

I've already deposited the cheques and spent most of the money.

already totally blew through all the money. thank goodness for accountants who e-file in february.

My mommy does my taxes for me.

They're done, but I haven't paid them yet. I forgot to have extra money taken out of my paycheck last year, so 3 months of collecting unemployment screwed me hard, tax-wise.

Not only have I not filed for this year yet, but I got a nice letter from the tax-man this week gving me 30 days to file last years taxes. I don't know why my government is so anxious to pay me back the money they owe me.

I like tax time, with my low wages I always get back a nice cheque. This thread reminded me to go pick up a form tomorrow tho.

thats one way to look at it ... or you can also think of it as .. every check they are taking too much of your money ... if you need more money when you get your check instead of a big refund @ the end of the year .. claim 1 more ..

Everyone thinks it great to get a big refund ... its better to owe a small amount @ the end of the year ..that means you got all of your money when possible durning the year.....

taxes suck. give me my money back.

I love taxes. Single mom with crappy job = mucho dinero in refunds.

What do you do if you lose your W2 record your employers sent you?

WEll nevermind, found them...

I still haven't done my taxes. For me it's tradition to wait until the 15th.

It would be like opening Christmas presents in late October if I did them any sooner.

Mine were ridiculously easy, and I don't make much. Refund, woot.

I did mine and I'm still waiting my money. I'm saving my refund for a study abroad trip to jamaica.

out of curiousity, what are you doing with your refund?
