boypussy? WRONG. MANpussy. i file my own taxes this pussy belongs to a MAN

Completely off topic, but has anyone else NOT done their taxes yet?

Friends, if you are in the US and it's tax time, DEFINITELY GO CHECK OUT THE IRS FREE FILING OPTIONS. I can't remember the last time I didn't have to pay TurboTax like $80 just to file but ours were free this year and I used TaxAct.com after the IRS website offered it as the free option. PLEASE DO THIS, DONT GIVE THOSE BASTARDS ANYMORE MONEY LOL I feel so much better about all of this, it was super easy to use I AM SHARING FOR ALL THE OTHER ANXIOUS BEANS OUT THERE

girl dont use turbotax they ar sooooo evil use the irs free filing program they slay

I've been using them for like 3 years im just too lazy to switch but they r soo annoying they do this to me every year

Hey ik this is weird but i saw u use TurboTax? Just wanted to link u to a short post that lists other cheaper and even free options! Genuinely just sick of seeing ppl essentially scammed out of their money

thank you! I dont know if i'll tax advice from a tumblr post and also i'm retarded and would probably fuck it up but i will inquire

I'm gonna be perfectly real unless you're either volunteering to do them for me or Uncle Tedding their HQ stop telling me to not use TurboTax I literally dont have the time or skillset to figure this shit out myself.

okay so im not sure how many ppl know about this but it's definitely tax season so im a bit late (also i do not get commission i am simply obsessed w this software)

there's a free canadian tax filing software that you can do right on your computer. if you made more than 40k in the year in taxable income, it's $17.25, and you just download the year's software, fill out some personal info (stuff like your SIN and your name and address and things) and then give it permission to log you into the CRA website.

here's the windows download link (it also supports Mac, IOS, and Android), just click the download button on the banner at the top of the page!!!

it'll give you a whole list of documents it pulled from the CRA website, just click "select all" and then "add all", this is the info that gets put on your income tax forms (both provincial and federal)

before you file, make sure all of your documents are available to the CRA!!! i made the mistake of filing slightly too early, so i had to refile a few hours later after figuring it all out... you can see if all your documents are there by:

logging into CRA

going into "tax returns" from the left-side panel

scrolling down and clicking "tax information slips (T4 and more)" on the right-side panel

choosing the tax year you're filing for (2023 in this case)

and choosing "all slips"

this will download a PDF for you that has every form that the CRA has for you for that year! make sure there isn't anything missing (tuition forms like the t2202, t4, t5, etc) and then start using StudioTax!

the reason it's only mostly free is because it's free to file for up to like 40k a year for one person, then it's a juicy $17.25 for a NetFile license (which is a number code you just input in a box in the software window)

i've been filing my taxes, my friends taxes, and my parent's taxes like this since I was 17, please use this!!! it's literally established by the canadian government so that it can stay free. DONT USE TURBOTAX PLS THEY ARE THE WORST!! they lied about being free and now there's a lawsuit

Its tax season and im baffled at how many people use those things that do your taxes for you.

People... people really do that en-masse?

You dont print your papers and finish your shit over the course of a day by yourself?

Is it really that hard for most people?? The IRS site tells you everything you need to do line by line for free? You can use your phone calculator and your paystubs you just need to read the instructions??

Like I get troubles with reading, but you can make the IRS site read out loud for you and all the math is really simple calculator imputs? Most people should be able to do that and get less errors than fucking turbotax??

My taxes are more complicated than most peoples due to subcontractor and its really not that bad to do by hand???

havent seen this going around yet this year so heres a friendly reminder to DO YOUR TAXES!

me after filing three sets of taxes and it’s a goddamn migraine because the american tax system is needlessly complicated

Anyone else still waiting on their fucking tax returns?

how do i OWE money filing my taxes ... something seems hella fishy

regardless of your opinion on economics (mine is that i'm not educated enough to have opinions on it and most people who do aren't) if you cant see why americans like the idea of getting rid of capitalism you're actually stupid, like the reason filing your taxes is hard in the us is because turbotax lobbies for making it hard so youll buy the software and they can continue making stack$$$. its fucking stupid

in the uk you dont even file taxes unless youre self employed. like yeah the uk aint the greatest but it just goes completely unchecked here, and the fact that most multinationals are headquartered here makes it worse

the bad part of this is that western leftists tend to lack a rigorous grasp of issues facing the global south (which should be item no 1 for anyone claiming to be an altruist fighting for equality) but its hardly surprising since most people arent altruistic, not even the people claiming to be

Just a reminder

Dont forget to file your taxes! The due date is April 15th, and it takes like 20 minutes to do basic taxes on TurboTax.

If you use an account, please get them the paperwork ASAP.

There is nothing I hate more right now, then people scheduling appointments for April 10th to get their taxes done. 5 days is not enough time and every CPA is literally working 70 hour weeks right now.

This was the kid w/ job and tax ?s: Turbo tax says that I have to file (or my parents) if I make $1050. If I make less I don't have to. And then I have to see if my employer withheld taxes from my paycheck. Idk if they do. I make 11.50/hr with 2 days of 5.5 h shifts (sometimes 6 or 8 if I'm called). I just dont want to look stupid when I go to hr and ask if they already took taxes out. I dont have a bank account, I use rapid paycard and all it says is the amount my job deposits.(Whoo word vomit)

When you started working there, you filled out a W2 form. This is a tax form that automatically deducts a set amount of money from each paycheck you receive. I recommend going to HR and asking them for a copy of your W2, you could just say that you want it for your records. You should be automatically sent a W2 form close to when tax season starts that will show you how much was deducted for the year and how much you made. That is what you will use for your Turbotax inputs. - Macaroni

ok so im watching the big short which i put in my netflix queue like maybe 8 years ago (when did this come out?) when it was still on netflix and its making me fucking insane. not for like the obvious reasons but im putting together the fact that like 1) my fucked up family dynamic is like a little bit attributable to whatever fuck ass mortgage my parents got in like ‘04 [i actually dont even know if that is ACTUALLY why we lost our house, or if ‘lost’ is even accurate, which is like a whole other can of worms]. not totally but like maybe we could have all gotten over the genetic predisposition to addiction otherwise. 2) how the fuck do we still talk about gen x and boomers not realizing why milennials/gen z dont think they’ll own a home. like i was 9 in ‘07 and the shit didn’t hit the fan for us until like late ‘08/early ‘09 and the whole thing like subliminally fucked me up. i can’t imagine be old enough to watch the news and understand shit when this was happening. 3) might as well go to grad school and live off pennies for the rest of my life bc i stg i can’t imagine willingly taking out FURTHER LOANS. 4) why the FUCK is my dad doing my GROWN ASS LITTLE SISTER’S TAXES. GIRL IT IS TYPING NUMBERS INTO TURBOTAX I KNOW YOU CAN DO IT
