Re: Send in your papers to the Tax Man yet?
I should have - would have sent in my return early this year because I new I would get a refund. <br /><br />But this year I used Turbo Tax in Jan and I new the resulting refund was wrong. Looked like it wasn't handling the deduction properly. <br /><br />I put it aside with the intention of fixing it later or just doing the standard forms. So time goes past, I don't touch the taxes until this past Tuesday. Now I don't feel like doing the forms from scratch, so I pickup with the Turbo Tax return and low and behold, the decuctions WERE wrong, but not from a calc, because I didn't include the SSN of two of my kids. Even though I entered the kids and counted them as deductions, T/Tax would not calc their value because I couldn't remember their SSN at the time of filling out the return. I entered their SSN's and everything updated just peachy.<br /><br />I wish they had made it clear that the deductions would not be calc'ed until a SSN was entered. I would have had this return filed in January.<br /><br />Oh well. Live and learn.
