You guys do realize that its better to not get a refund.

Its your money anyway, you are giving Uncle Sam an interest free loan they just get to invest and gain interest on your money instead of you.

Best case scenario is having to pay a little, that way you gain interest on their money.

Its just that most people cant save money so getting a tax refund is like found money or a bonus check, when in actuality it was yours all along.

Better yet did you know that according too the Constitution income tax is illegal anyway.

Still dont know what Im getting. Probably end up oweing again like last year.

I think shambles really wanted to start this thread to remind everyone to spend their tax returns at...cough cough....Mustang Tuning! ha ha ha....I know I probably will be....maybe some nice Mach 1 floor mats or something

LOL that manipulating a hole...

ha ha ha.....yeah, it seemed like a nice innocent thread, but the hidden message is "spend your tax returns at Mustang Tuning". You didn't fool me Shambles! ha ha ha....just kidding man.

Damn and I fell for it LMAO

I Dont Pay Taxes............ Yet

I peeped that right away. But i dont care, they ar going to get my money one way or another.:stupid:

Muhahahahahahaha...im evil...

No, that really wasnt the reason at all, but you are all more than welcome to spend your moolah at MT :P.

Well, if you guys sold tires then I would have but nope. Of course not...

WE NEED TIRES AND SUPERCHARGERS!!!

if you would have put that money into an account at 4% interest you would have an additional $130 now

Itd actually be more than that I think. I need to adjust mine, Ive never thought about it that way. Great point, Id much rather get more back and have it in a 4 percent account instead. Good call.

i only got 846 fed and 303 state!

bastards!

I usually try to work things out so that I get about a $1500 refund...enough to cover my local income taxes which my employer does not withhold. But I have gotten back as much as $8000. I would guess it would be around $4,000 this year due to some extra deductions. Nope, the money won't go to mods. I own two houses that I have to pay property taxes on too, so that is generally what I due with the extra tax return money. You don't want to know what I have to pay in fed taxes each year:nono:

hey guys, I havent gotten my info from all 3 jobs yet, but my total income is around 20k and I have about 2k of that in donations(church tithe). Will that donation/tithe help my refund at all? And also, is there any way for me to tell ahead of time what I might get? I'm dependent living w/ my mom and attending college(she pays tuition and books)

being a dependent knocks your refund by a lot. mine was more than half knocked off being a dependent, as not being one. Donations work FOR you as far as tax returns go.

is it a percentage of the donation or the whole thing or what?

It is real simple...since you are a dependent, your Mom or Dad (or both) take you as a deduction, so you can not deduct yourself. This is the best option if your parents make more money then you.

Let's say they make 100k per year. That would put them in the 28% tax bracket (just a guess). I fyou make 20k, you would be in the 10% tax bracket, therefore it is better they have the deduction and not you.

Now, if you are over 18 and NOT a full-time college student (I don't know your situation) then I believe it is harder to prove that you are dependent on them for tax purposes.

Making donations simply reduces your taxible income. You $2000 donation might get you about $200 refund depending on your tax bracket.

It would be smarter to allow your parents to take the $2000 deduction and not you as they would most likely get a lot more back. Then, they could just give you the money.

I think another thing you guys are forgetting is, we (the middle class type) have to pay the the most taxes vs. income. We gotta pay for all the dead beats. And if you look for ways to not pay as much tax. The government will raise taxes anyway.. I payed dearly in taxes this year. Nearly 10 grand when all said and done. ( thats the fica stuff and the other things they pull on us). But I'm happy to get back what i can. Like I said we are gonna pay for the Deadbeats in America one way or another. Any deadbeats near you?? If I could take home all the money i actually earned by working my ass off everyday. I would be buying a Cobra soon.. Unless my wife wants new furniture again LOL,,:helpsmili

first off, its just my mom. but, if she declared the money that I donated, if we got audited(which she did when my parents were together a few years ago), would we get in trouble for that?

damnit my dad's in Hotlanta and hasn't gotten my mail back home yet...it should be somehwere in the neighborhood of 500 bucks though both State and Federal...Giggity...dunno what Ima get...Juice maybe???

Im ready to order a set of Black FR500's with some of my tax money, I guess it wont happen until they are back in stock. I hope the free shipping last.

The free shipping will last!!
