For the first time since we've been married, we are getting a tax refund!  Our estimated quarterly taxes were higher than our actual taxes, so we're getting a few hundred dollars back!  Thank you, President Trump!!!!!!!  MAGA!

Yay! Taxes were easier this year, too, for most people. Next year, I'll be able to do the taxes sooooo easy!

It's either going towards hardwoods for the living room or a swing set for the grands. I'm still debating on the swing set...biggrin

I actually COULD have gotten a refund but just applied it to my quarterlies. But, yes my taxes were much lower!

We could have gotten one! Except DH's ex claimed their son behind his back even though it's his year.

So now all I have is one pissed off husband

 If in a written agreement she is in violation.  Fight it.

 But that is a refund, you just spent it on returns in the future.

 Yeah, unless it is written in some documentation, whomever provides 51% of the child's care gets to claim them.

At least that's how it was for me.

I don't make enough to file.

Now, my disability is taxed, at least that's what the documents say.

But I haven't needed to file since I started receiving disability.

 Since Gs not touring this year, we don't have to file quartelies. I'll take the cash...

We're going to Scotland and England in the fall, so that should just about cover my souvenirs...lol!

Oh he's going to fight it. Just not looking forward to it obviously. The thing that is the worst is now the IRS is looking closely at him, wondering why he tried to double dip as it were with SS's social security number

Sounds like the new tax laws, etc. are really a good thing. Congratulations to all who got a refund.

 Just sent the IRS the Parenting Plan that should outline the legal stuff.

 

Then he should send an email to the ex letting her know this was not her year to claim the kid. And wait for the response.

Eta: jealous  but not in a bad way :) hope you have a awesome  time

We got a little refund. Under $500.

I would have been mad, had it been more. I hate lending our money to the government, with no interest.furious

We came so close to breaking even, I can't even gripe about that.wink

Happy dance!biggrin

I got a much bigger refund than anticipated and qualified for breaks that I didn't know existed. I'm happy because getting the refund allowed me to pay off a bill that I've been plugging away on. lol I'll modify my W4 for this year now.

 I was pleasantly surprised - all of our extra income got a 20% small business exemption.  That was new, and on top of our larger bigger deductions.

 Probably not.  This is a Trump thing.

It looks like we have a Capital Gains Exception for some small business, and some other sole proprietorship exceptions. 19% for my structure.

Our return was $753.00. Tax prep charges are $450.00. We will get $303.00 back after paying estimated quarterlies. I'm not mad at that. Thank you President Trump!!!

 You don't need to pay a tax paperer going forward. New tax law is simple.

 Our tax return is crazy difficult. I literally send them over 100 pages of documentation. Plus, we have income from several states, so that makes if harder. I would rather pay someone to do that...
