aight so i got my w2 back and it SEEMS like i'll be getting a phatty return. but after using turbotax and fileyourtaxes.com it seems like i owe 98 fucking dollars! whcih means i wont be getting that phatty return! cot damnit. im not sure if im doing something wrong or the programs are being retarded. do you guys go to a specific place to do your taxes? anyone here have a 'special' person that does your taxes? if someone can help, that'll be great! this 'phatty' return will be going towards coilovers and roll cage... if i infact actually get the return.... let me know whats up ya'll. thank you

shmiddy · 01-18-2008, 05:55 AM

i just go to an office and have someone else do it for me. i tryed the turbo tax thing but you'll never get all you can get out of them programs. lol cant wait! last year i got 5g from my tax return. and i make about 37g's a yr. the lady i went to hooked me up!!!! good luck man hope you squeez some money back from the government.

I like HR blocks thing where you can harass a store if the program doesn't give you a good result.

*DALAZ_68* · 01-18-2008, 07:45 AM

im using turbo tax just out of convinience...to much work and school to pay someone a visit and take care of it...plus

9 days and u get a check is pretty sweet...specially with my dad needing money to visit my granpa asap (hes a very ill old man ) i need money now

jrocslider · 01-18-2008, 08:01 AM

i go to H&R block to get my taxes done.

since i'm paying back loans for school i gotta do a 1098E but instead of gettin sum money back i get everything that i paid for taxes last year and probably more.

*fliprayzin240sx* · 01-18-2008, 10:27 AM

Try taxslayer, maybe theyre a lil better. Then again, dont know your situation...some peoples taxes are just more complicated than others.

stinky_180 · 01-18-2008, 12:32 PM

ill put it this way...my best income year was roughly...34k

turbo tax gave me 2k in total

if i had my car when i had that cash...5 lugbig brake upgrade. exaust and turbo all in one...and some to spare

just to give u a rough idea

gotta240 · 01-18-2008, 11:06 PM

WTF?! I make ALMOST what you do but i end up PAYING a hundred bucks or something.

gripstr · 01-19-2008, 01:54 AM

Tax person here lol

It all depends how much deductions you can get....

I would go with an expert, since they are up to on what you can and cannot write off...

I recommened HR Block, since they offer you the money upfront for a little fee, so you dont have to wait for uncle sam. They will also take liability for any inaccuracies i believe....

I think their prices are around $80-100 IIRC.

start adopting kids and write them off then return them later

Rob's S14 · 02-09-2008, 11:32 PM

I did my taxes last week over in LBC. I'm gettin a G back. Comparing refunds with other people with out knowing their situation isn't gonna help, ie what they claim during the year, how many dependants they have, writeoffs, retirement.

vi3tdt2005 · 02-12-2008, 07:38 PM

You can go to OCC and have them do it for you for FREE. They have students learning how to do it but before finalizing an expert checks it over. But, i got mine done from someone on Bolsa for $20
