You misunderstood my post. I said I never had to pay in the thousands but I've always had to pay. My bills generally ranged 250.00 to 700.00. This was when money was taken automatically. I'm not trying to go back and forth but I guess technically now I do pay in the thousands but that's because I don't have anything taken out of my pays. I save more than I owe so I give myself a refund after I pay them. I get deductions but they're all work related. Truck repair, supplies, etc..

Never had to pay?!? Damn, man! Where are your deductions?! I put new windows in my house (well, half, at least) and STILL can't claim an eco-improvement as I still fall below basic deductions. HEALTHCARE costs a fortune in this country. Biggest and easiest way to fall into debt. I have a plan (and actually had to give blood today as part of the PPO agreement) but still pay at least $2000 out of pocket each year. 

Ah, I best stop. I could rant forever.

I never had to pay back in the thousands but I paid yearly for over a decade. Had a brief stint of about 3 years of refunds and now with my job (IBO) I deduct the taxes myself and save it throughout the year and then pay an accountant to tell me what I owe. He suggests I send money quarterly and collect a refund from them but I save it and send what I owe.

I would totally go to an accountant if I was in that situation.

Here, I have a massive amount taken out per paycheck (taxes + "deductions" = a shitty HMO, retirement fund, term life insurance, and basic life that ALL suck as the copays prove) then the massive April bite. ALWAYS have to pay and is always in the four figures. If I sat to think out what I pay in purchase taxes on top? Hell, I might even sell a guitar.

This state has one of the highest rates in the nation. Only drives people to other states or online.

An accountant for me also. Give him $175.00 so he can tell me how much I can now graciously (sarcasm) give to my government. I save a percentage throughout the year that so far has yielded me a little back. For many years I had to pay, it sucks. Technically I'm still paying but I save more than I need so I'm refunding myself.(lol)

 oh.  we do math.  the math isnt so bad.  its the figuring out which deductions you can claim, and what you cant, and where to claim it, and how the provincial tax is different from federal, and ..... yeah, I take mine to an accountant now.

Yeah that's what we do here, you file a personal tax summary but you don't have to do any calculations yourself, the IRD does it - if you get a refund, yay! If you owe, boo.

 we have deductions every cheque also, but you have to file to see if they got that right or not.  you either owe, or get refund....  usualy I owe

Age will take over eventually so I've decided that I'm not going to say anything about slowing down on the shows anymore. I went to see a Cleveland band last Saturday called Ventana. No it's not MRH  ...but the keyboardist is from MRH. (lol). I like them. They wear gas masks so they (slightly) resemble the MRH look but the music is quite a bit different. More industrial sounding. I'm going to see a Columbus based band this Saturday called "Xfactor1". I think some of you guys might like them. No masks and a little more basic metal. They have a song or two with a few rap lines but they're metal for the most part. I'm surprised that they're not bigger than they are. They do a really good version of "The Stroke" by Billy Squier. I'll post a video. These two bands help me realize that there are some local talents that put on fantastic shows with no fanfare. The show next Saturday is 3 bucks. How can you beat that? Also have a couple of MRH shows next month, ROTR next month, and Mayhem in July. You only live once so I'm trying to live. (if that makes sense)

Tax time sounnds like a real nuisance. The tax year finished here March 31st, thankfully most individuals don't file tax returns, it's taken from your pay (PAYE - pay as you earn) before you even see it. You can file a personal tax summary which Inland Revenue calculate and often you get a tax refund from paying too much tax, which is nice lol. I had to file tax returns when I was self employed and hated it!

Good deal. Let's get our story straight....they ate flour tortillas and butter x 3 / day. Horchata or some other inexpensive juice to wash it down. Quality food cost at least $100 per diem.

 Try claiming Lauren, Jayce and Siera then.  I will vouch that you fed them.

Thus, the ellipsis = ...

This was not meant to be an exhaustive list. Personally, I think that Live Nation clearly has some major payback coming!

HB, after the yearly chunk the IRS just bit out of my ass, I am willing to try the across the border, double dependent claim!!!

I am certainly not the person to ask about what the standard deduction on a kid is but I think it is double the standard deduction = $6000 or so.

Hey, all I know is that I can't ever make it close to an "itimized" return. Standard deduction is all I get meaning that I always pay up the ass. CURSE YOU AND A POX ON THEE __________ !!!! (fill in the blank...Reagan, Bush, Obama, the Senate, Enron, Santa Claus...).

guido, think the IRS and CRA would get together and notice a double claim on my 3 kids?

What do you get for a dependant claim there? here its 2 grand per kid off your income. roughly.

2 more weeks for me. sigh
[guidogodoy] Friday, April 11, 2014 9:51:19 PM 
Uck-fe. e-may. Tax time in the US. Just filed.
I know I should have asked earlier but could anyone loan me a dependent (aka. write-off) or three?
[Becks] Friday, April 11, 2014 2:32:24 AM 
Same here
