Mine are done. Filed them on Feb. 3rd. Got my State refund yesterday and my federal should be coming on Friday. Of course, they are both spent already. Both will be going toward the down payment on our house.
 
I have mine done (I claim the house stuff, so mine is the important one, lol). I use turbo-tax online, and upgraded to the deluxe version to help with some chairty stuff. I haven't filed yet though. I tend to go over them 89043890432890432 times before I e-file, lol.

Our return is sa-weeeeeeeeet! LOL! Buying a house is awesome, lol. We're saving 95% of it for now. Since it's bigger than we expected I'm gonna buy the chandeliers we've been wanting for a while from Pottery Barn. The rest will go towards building a deck and a fence. :)
 
We just got some of our banking statements reqquired to complete our return. I'll be befriending turbotax this weekend, lol. It's such a PITB. In WA, we only file Federal returns, so at least it's not as complicated as it could be.
 
I filed a week ago and got one of my states on Saturday, my federal is due to DD sometime this week. Ours was significantly more than we usually get this year, so I did splurge on the XSI but the rest is going towards paying off our van, so no spending sprees for me...but, it was our only debt so it's worth being debt-free. (outside of my $44,000 student loans....no tax return could put a dent in that, LOL).

we had to file in two states and I've got like 3 city returns to do (boo! hiss!) That gets confusing because we lived in a differenct city than david worked so we have to file in both, one city has to pay another, it gets horribly confusing for an accounting-challenged girl like me. That's my biggest complaint with HRblock is that they don't help with city.
 
nope, I haven't done mine, but up here in Canada, it's not due for a while yet. Still waiting for all our forms to do them. Those don't have to be sent out to us until the 28th at the latest (I believe).
 
already got mine and spent...WHOOOOHOOO paid off 5 credit cards, gonna save anything left over to send Sam to driving school {$400 in the state of WA and she will be 16 in April} once i get back form the desert, DH and I are going to Vegas in Aug and then turn around and take all the kids to Disneyland for 8 days and we are hoping to be able to pay for it all with cash!!!!
 
done and filed. I filed last wednesday I think, we got one state refund on tuesday, and federal comes next friday. We owe the other state, so they can wait until apr 15th. :D
 
Done with Federal and State. Already got them back and they are pretty much spent already.

Now I just have to do my city taxes but will prob wait until April 14th LOL.
 
Mine are done and filed. Already got the state (we have small state taxes and thus I got very little back, but its better than owing), but I think I get the federal on Friday.

Where do you have to do city taxes at? I have never heard of that.
 
Mine are done for the most part. I worked in one state and live in another last year so I filed the federal return and the return for the state I worked in. We break even with the state that we live in so I'm not in any hurry to file that one just yet. I'm too lazy to print everything out just yet and mail it off!!
 
Done and submitted. We've received our state refund already. Our federal refund will be deposited on Fridayish. Andrew's spend the state refund already, he bought a new laptop. We've got no concrete plans for the federal refund. We might well just leave it in the bank for now.
 
We just went and had ours done this morning. Our federal refund should arrive sometime next week - who knows when we'll get our money from CA. Figures the year we actually get a decent state refund is the year the state is broke. :thumbdown:
 
We already have our returns sitting in the bank. I'm trying to keep them there. It'd be nice to actually have a little cushion (we live paycheck to paycheck).

We filed as soon as we could. We were worried about the State (Calif) issuing IOU's. Funny, they were faster than federal this year.
 
We did ours at HR Block in the end of January, but they guy didnt tell us about the new homeowner credit of $7500! We bought our house last april and a friend asked if we got the credit and we were like.. what credit? lol so we had to go back and get our taxes admended :( grrrr lol. But oh well, now we get $7500 to put on debt :D

Click to expand...

There may be hope for us yet then! I was hoping that by filing earlier we might have a chance to actually get our money.
 
If I had kids or a house so I knew I'd be getting a big refund back, I suppose I would have them already done like y'all, but since I'm just a childless apt dweller, there's no pt.

My refund will be minimal if anything. :p
 
Ours are already filed and our federal refund should be deposited in our account Friday :thumbup: We finally got a state refund this year (we've owed the last 2-3 years) but it basically took care of the balance still due from last year so we just got an offset notice which is fine by me, at least it's taken care of!
 
We haven't done ours yet. DH does them & he's been dealing with pneumonia the last couple weeks & hasn't been in the mood. He might get around to it this weekend. We're only expecting maybe $100 back, possibly even owing $100, so there's no incentive to file early.
 
We usually always end up paying something in, so we wait until the 11th hour to do ours. I can't remember the last time we actually got money...:glare:
 
I filed last week and Im due to get the deposit Friday. No splurging though as it is going to have hold us over til we figure out something else because my husband is out of work and cant find anything right now and was denied unemployment
 
We had ours done earlier this week and now we're just waiting on the refund (all of which is already spent on bills and car repairs, btw)

We always get $ back, but our tax lady said that if I dont file differently this year, we'll end up owing. :(
 
Waiting on the refund! Woot! That reminds me that I need to ask dh if I can put away some money for my scrap dealers.
