don't forget. just 'cause the IRS'll be there next year doesn't mean they'll let you slide til then!

p.s.- Canadians disregard. (do not confuse with "Disregard Canadians", there good folks.)

My taxes were done in early February. Why do you people wait so long???

Ooooh, bad story from me! I was entitled to a refund this year, so you'd better believe I did my taxes in February, too! I got the nice note from the gov't saying they were direct-depositing my refund. I usually pay my taxes online so I didn't think much of it for a month or so . . . after 6 weeks I called them and found out they had deposited my refund to the last account they had issued a refund to, which I had CLOSED IN 1999!!! Aaacchhh! After much consternation (hard to get info without a bank account number!) I finally found out from a nice bank manager that my refund had been posted to the account, which was now held by SOMEONE ELSE! The bank issued a recall on the funds, but so far I am still waiting and waiting for the government to get the money back and mail it to me. Oh my! Lesson learned!

I did mine in Feb too... but, waited to file cause I had to pay.

Wow. I sure hope the new account holder didn't spend your refund! It's pretty silly to re-use account numbers so soon after they've been closed, don't you think??
Posted By: AshBoomstick Re: Tax Day - 04/15/05 06:57 PM
yeah, i had no idea the recycled account numbers...i guess the people that come out on the winning side of that deal aren't gonna bring it to anyone's attention!
Posted By: Amie Re: Tax Day - 04/15/05 07:22 PM
I know! Who would have guessed they needed to reuse numbers that are 9 digits long in Canada?

Wow.
I thought it was just our Guv-Mint that messed things up!

It's probably because they are trying to figure a way out having to pay even more than they already have. Or maybe they just spend too much time on certain message boards, and just can't tear themselves away long enough to do their darn taxes. I sent mine in a day early, so I guess that makes me an early bird.

Gee, Amie, that's a real bummer. I hope it turns out ok. I don't suppose now would be a good time to beg for some free speakers.

Roger and I both did ours back in Feb. as well. All our refund is now in the E.U.'s economy.

All your refund are belong to E.U.

I owe the government money every year. Why should I give them anything earlier? As far as I'm concerned, they can wait till the last minute for my cash.
Posted By: spiffnme Re: Tax Day - 04/20/05 07:13 PM
Exactly. I did my federal taxes at the first of February. I mailed my state taxes out on April 15th. The difference? I owed CA $224...feds owed me.
