Tax time!

by elizabeth on March 18th, 2008

It’s getting close to the April 15th deadline for Americans to file their 2007 income tax.

Side note: this is the first year we’ve filed before April, in well, forever. My youngest was born on April 15th, and, for the longest time he thought the people at H & R Block were his friends since we ended up celebrating there every year, but now we use Turbo Tax. It rocks.

Anyway…

Besides income tax returns, some U.S. taxpayers will get a rebate check this year (which, by the way are going to be mailed out in order of your Social Security number).

Just FYI, Turbo Tax has some handy online tax tools, including a Tax Rebate Estimator so you can get an idea of what your rebate might be.

Also, did you also know that some people can use TurboTax for free?

If you earned $30,000 or less or were active military duty or qualify for the Earned Income Credit, you can use the resources at TaxFreedom.com to fill out your forms and e-file and determine whether you qualify and how you can participate with TurboTax Freedom Edition.

If you’re getting a rebate from your hard work with both your career and kids, don’t spend it all on one place.

You can always buy me lots of different things.
