Hooray, I did my taxes

January 28th, 2017 at 09:18 pm

Yesterday I started the federal return and made much better progress than I anticipated, since I knew there'd be a few extra forms or schedules this year.

I finished the return today and filed the federal one, which has been "accepted" by the IRS. I did realize, belatedly, that I forgot to record $20 of interest I paid on some bank accounts but it's too late now...maybe they'll catch it; if not, not a huge thing.

I also did the state return and will file that tomorrow.

I will get a refund on the federal and owe money on the state return, so my net refund will be about $500.

I was NOT looking forward to doing that at all. SO relieved this is almost behind me for another year, and next year's will be simpler.

Met a friend at Starbucks last night; meeting dad for dinner at our favorite Italian place tonight.

    I'm looking forward to my taxes next year, when they should be fairly simple too. No waiting til the end of February for documents ....

    I usually do them Super Bowl weekend. Sounds like a nice weekend.

    I'm sure Starbucks was a nice reward for working on your taxes.
