Gigi Posted January 23, 2008 Share Posted January 23, 2008 My husband came home yesterday with his w-2 and so I was able to take care of everything last night. Things haven't changed much since last year and all the other forms (property tax, interest information) I had to have I could print off from the internet. YEAH!:D Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Karenciavo Posted January 23, 2008 Share Posted January 23, 2008 I always wait till the last minute b/c we have to pay! Same here. :( Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jellybean Posted January 23, 2008 Share Posted January 23, 2008 GREAT! We still need to do ours. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HomeOnTheRanch Posted January 23, 2008 Share Posted January 23, 2008 We've received one mortgage interest statement and one charitable contribution receipt. We're still waiting on everything else (which is a lot). I usually do ours around Valentine's Day (romantic, huh?) so we can get it to the tax guy for review.

Angie in VA Posted January 23, 2008 Share Posted January 23, 2008 Still waiting for the W-2 here and some banking info too, for that matter, but what I do have is in order and I'm ready to go! And for those who owe, at least you don't give Uncle Sam a free loan like we've done before! :( Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Audrey Posted January 23, 2008 Share Posted January 23, 2008 Kudos! That is quite a feat. I drag it on until the very end (here we file by April 30th). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SheilaZ Posted January 23, 2008 Share Posted January 23, 2008 We're still waiting for some info but we've input all the information that we have so far. As I side note, we just filed last year's taxes since DH was deployed and had a deferment. So I have this "Didn't we just do all this" feeling when I handle the tax stuff.

Daisy Posted January 23, 2008 Share Posted January 23, 2008 Uugh, I haven't received ANY of our info yet. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Diane Posted January 23, 2008 Share Posted January 23, 2008 Wow, I imagine that's a huge relief. We haven't received any of paperwork yet. Way to go. :) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Elisabeth in IL Posted January 23, 2008 Share Posted January 23, 2008 We're still waiting for most of our forms. Once they get here, I'll lock myself away and get them done. I'm hoping for a good return as I just crashed our car because of the snow. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Amy in NH Posted January 23, 2008 Share Posted January 23, 2008 I had ours done two weeks ago, free-filed it on the 11th, which was the first day the IRS was taking electronic returns. THEN I got an email that the IRS won't process our return until Feb 11th because we have a Tuition & Fees Deduction & a Residential Energy Credit that were both affected by the AMT problem! Ugh! We could really use the money - already have it all spent on paper. And they want to boost the economy? Just give me my refund, already!

OhM Posted January 23, 2008 Share Posted January 23, 2008 Jealous - I love having them done first thing! Still waiting for W2's here - but ready with just about everything else. Anyone else use Tax Cut or the like? I've used it for 3 years now and love it! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Annie G Posted January 23, 2008 Share Posted January 23, 2008 I have my manilla folder all ready to collect the items we need for taxes, but so far all that's in it are the booklets from the fed and state. No w-2 yet, no statements from banks, investments, etc. Usually it's late February before everything arrives. Good for you!!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Andie Posted January 23, 2008 Share Posted January 23, 2008 Good for you! My mother has her refund, already, which surprised me! We have not ONE bit of info yet, not the mortgages, no W2...nuthin'! That's okay...I'm in no hurry to write another check to West Virginia. :P Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sunny Posted January 23, 2008 Share Posted January 23, 2008 Yeah for you! I'm almost done. I've got it all input, and checking the numbers against the numbers that come in from the tax forms. We're self employed, so I never know if anyone is going to send us a 1099 or not. Ithink I'll wait until next month, then get it sent off. But, it feels good to basically have it all done and just wait to see if any surprises show up! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Plaid Dad Posted January 24, 2008 Share Posted January 24, 2008 Good for you! We're still waiting for some key paperwork, but I've done the preliminary work on TurboTax. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BamaTanya Posted January 24, 2008 Share Posted January 24, 2008 I don't think it's very nice to brag. Just because YOU can breathe easily and I have at least a couple more months of hyperventilating! Lol. I keep dreaming that one year it will be different, but ours are so complicated. Dh had 3 jobs last year, and we're still awaiting all 3 W-2s. Then I have to track down all the charitable contribution receipts and prescription/dr's receipts and the home mortgage interest and the local taxes and the student loans . . . I'm making my head hurt . . . Maybe next year I'll have all my pieces of paper in the same box! =) Congratulations! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kat19 Posted January 24, 2008 Share Posted January 24, 2008 We will get ours done next week. I can't wait for the money to come so I can purchase school stuff for the fall :D Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Everyone was asleep when I finished them and I was excited.:D We had a few complicated years (3 state returns plus buying a home/401 k stuff) but things have settled down. I actually thought I would have to wait for more forms to come in...but lo and behold a copy was online for all of the information I needed on each account I checked. :cool: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
