I do mine each year with turbotax.com. Not sure how much H&R charges, but turbo is online, it efiles for you and walks you through everything so you don't miss anything, and it cost me uh, for state and fed $40.

Plus it keeps your previous years' files online, so when you file the following year, it remembers numbers you'll need.

I got my refund from the feds in 9 days. It took longer to get back from the state.

I know, that is what I usually do..but with the move and being on dial up and everything happening so fast....

This was the first time I ever used H & R Block..it cost $60, but they took care of everything in no time flat and I get my check tomorrow...1-2 days to get your check...totally worth it and all I had to do was provide my signature.

The lady that ended up doing them turned out to be an ex San Bernadino cop..now she does taxes...cool lady. She new about a new federal job here that just opened up and even had all the paper work and application for it and gave it all to J.

WOW!

And a fat refund!!

woo hoo!

Double check those refunds Zen. The one to two day thing isn't a refund, it's a short term loan in lieu of your refund. We ran stories about it. Most times the refund loan matches the actual refund, but sometimes the gov't gives you more and H&R never tells you. And come to think about it, the places that were sketchy weren't H&R .. but they justify any overage as an interest fee you pay for getting the money up front -- or something like that (we ran the story a couple of months back, can't remember exactly, my bad).

zenbabe · 04-15-2004, 11:10 PM

well, we did end up paying a little extra "convienience charge" but didn't mind since we though we were going to have to owe in taxes...could wait for the check to come from the gov..but just paid em the cash since it was kind of like found money anyway....but thanks for looking out for a sistah!!

KISSES!!!

nycwriters · 04-15-2004, 11:10 PM

I did write this somewhere else but I am proud of me for it and wanted to reinforce my good (finally) behaviour.

Last Friday I walked into the tax office and said..."I'd like to do my taxes."

Then I handed over the T4s and receipts etc. for 2000, 2001, 2002, and 2003. Ever see a tax guy poop?

They owe me, so it shouldn't be a real problem.
