Also check your bank/credit union websites they usually have links for online taxes.
That's how I did mine last year and will be doing them again.

 

[sampras fan]

federal return (for most people) online is free, state return will cost (i think mine was 10 for DC)

 

[alleyzonjay]

listen last time i filed in 08 they added dependents on my w2, got caught didnt file in 09 but i want to this year, what are my options?

 

[fr3sh like ughh]

turbo tax is the way to go...

 

[lazyj10]

You can basically use your last paycheck of the year and not wait for your W2..it'll be close if not spot on.

I understand some people who want a fat return because they can't save money worth a damn, however, to me, it makes no sense.
Take it for what it's worth, but I'd rather have the money in EACH paycheck then a lump sum at one point in the year. You may consider adjusting yourwithholdings to a higher number to help this.

Should be receiving a very nice return this year.
Filing as Head of Household [with 2 kids] and my tax credit for being a First Time Homebuyer.

Put down that you donated around $300-$400 (no more than $500) so you can get a better return. I'm doing it this year & gonna see how much I get back.

Im tight... Pops has to claim me and im the one that paid for my school tuition which was like $4000... I wish there was a way to get around this...

 

[dmxgod]

Hopefully since i have a full-time job now i will get at least a couple of grand so i can pay all my credit card bills off..and only save some money in case ofan emergency..

 

[po2345]

When do W2's arrive? Do you have to directly request it from your company?

PO

 

[robsheedwallace]

Should be seeing a nice lil chunk this year.. With that it will be spent on a NY trip with some beespokes..

 

[j dilla himself]

I need a kid.

 

[maza4ever14]

Just waiting for my 2 W2. I too am getting the $8k first time homebuyer credit plus my usuall $2.5k.

Gunna pay off the CCs, cop a new washer and dryer, and maybe cop a pair of kicks I've been REALLY wanting.

 

[chueco dtb]

Im 17 y/o and I plan to file my taxes this year. Will I have to owe any taxes if I didnt make over $9000 a year? How much do you think I will get if I madearound $8500 last year?

 

[dwyanewadeog]

probably all of it since you are below the poverty line for income. could be different for minors...

Gotta wait for my 2 W2's. Hopefully I won't end up owing money like I did two years ago due to investments.

 

[playoff12]

I'm new to this stuff NT, should I do my taxes? I worked at FedEx for about a month and a half and I got paid every week.

I made about $80-$150 every week and they usually take out about $10-$20 dollars.

What should I do?
