TAXES!

I am so frustrated and angry. Why didn’t I just have Uncle Dick do my taxes? Even if he charged me 500.00 it would have been worth it. The time and emotions I have invested into this endeavor! WHY! Why can’t it be easy? The latest goose egg is I discovered my company took out NJ tax even though I never worked in the Jersey office. Apparently they had me listed as being in the NJ office while I worked from home waiting for the Philly office to open. I went into Turbo Tax and placed a checkmark in the box that stated my employer withheld a different state’s tax. The following screen told me that I would have to submit my W2 Form with my return. But I planned to e-File it! Does this mean I can’t e-File it? I don’t know! Finally I decided to heck with it all, I am just going to e-File it just so I can get this darn thing over and finished. Well, it tells me I have to do an electronic signature and it needs information from last year’s return. I AM IN MY OFFICE IN PHILLY! I AM NO WHERE NEAR THAT INFORMATION! So I cancelled out. It seems that I just can’t seem to get this finished. I am beginning to think the real reason Thoreau refused to pay taxes is that not only is it unconstitutional, it’s PAINFUL! I think I am going to have a party once my taxes are submitted. I will party after I write the check. (How is it possible that they take so much out of each paycheck yet at the end of it all, I still have more to pay?) UGH! UGH! UGH! 😛

    Hi! The important thing it the authoities who are due to get paid, get paid before the deadline. Why not just mail it with the W2? If you overpay they will always refund. You may have to document you were not residing in New Jersey and that you paid your state taxes in your resident state, Pennsylvania before it’s all over. Just make sure to pay IRS and state on time.

    Donna,

    You can just go to the H&R Block place and it’ll cost you $100. That’s $400 savings over your “uncle” on a bad day – lol
