Did you get a nice tax refund? Dick Cheney sure did.

getting married + buying a house in the same calendar year = little windfall

although we immediately applied half of the refund towards next years taxes because we may be telling a different story in a year.

I didn't owe anything, and I didn't get anything back. I guess that means I withheld properly. I don't like to give interest free loans to the government, but I'd rather do that than end up owing a pile of money April 15th.

Regarding Bush and Cheney, I prefer not to speak of them.

pretty much. its the ideal situation.

however, i have deductions i can take every year which usually brings a refund in, but if i changed my withholdings, it wouldn't work out the same. at least it didnt the year i tried to

I heard a little blurb on 93.3 online yesterday about a guy that still hadn't filed his 2001 tax return because it was a refund. So this year, he tried to file and get a refund of his $1100 that was overpaid and government told him to get lost. They said he waited too long to file. So, if you are owed a return, make sure you file before 5 years.

yeah but if he owed the gov, they would have been beating down his trailer door.

That's actually good. The IRS is already a ridiculously inefficient bureaucracy. Do we really want them spending time and resources to hunt down people that haven't filed and will be owed money?

It's not a good idea to admit to trolling. Consider yourself lucky, we don't really do warnings around here.

I heard that!
