Ok- assuming here that you're receiving money and not owing... what have you done with your refund?

My return isn't because I overpay on the taxes- I take the most deductions at source that I can... mine is because of the daycare payments and the investments made to my RSP.

I've claimed single +9!!!! and I still get back a goat load... i figure why pay it now when i always get it back.. with EIC and child tax credit and filing Head of Household.. i hope i still qualify for EIC after getting my great new job... i'm guessing with all my deductions, i should still be good... we'll see...

We always loved PBS. I think the only show that DS would sit through was Blues Clues. But I liked all of it!

Well I did the whole extension thing because I have a lot to organize before I turn it all over to the accountant. My taxes got too complex even for me, and I've done corporate taxes and payroll. But I am getting way too much back again. That will go into the fix the house up fund.

Me too. I feel like its irresponsible to sort of use that as a "savings account" - but man oh man, that big fat check in Jan, or Feb, the months I am MOST broke all year - is a LIFESAVER every year!
