Taxes are back again!

I have received my refund already. I was quite happy with what I got back. I would have much rather had that money all year, but because I didn't make much money last year I got the big refund. I filed my taxes and was soo happy to get them, but then found that I missed a few things so now I have to file an amended return. So, I messed up what I thought was my good tax situation. UGH!

yes paying tax is one of the citizen duty i guesss as long u are able to.For me i am under the taxable.In my country if the net salary per year is below the mininum range that it is not taxable.I think i am under the poverty line.Haha.So no need to paid tax.But daily buying stuffs is affected by sales tax,service tax , toll tax and others.As usually in other country , rich people paid less tax while the middle income and poor have to pay more tax. 5% from rich person and 5 % from poor people are not the same and not fair.

I have started gathering my tax forms, receipts, etc. but I haven't started working on my taxes just yet. I have some paperwork to pick up at another place, and then I might start calculating. I have been paying extra out of my paycheck each week, to try to help out on tax time. I am hoping that I will either break even, or maybe even get a tax refund like you. Last year I think I got $31 back, or something close to that, on the federal. And only had to pay in a few dollars to state. I am glad to hear that you are receiving the opportunity to go on such a great trip. That is really going to be a great trip. Florida is really a beautiful state, even though I have only been there a couple of times.
