Or are you the last minute/file for extension type? We filed in Feb, small refund. ---

I’ve only filed for an extension once in my life. I don’t recall the circumstances. Given the midnight deadline, if one needs every hour they can get, they should fly to Hawaii. ---

A couple years ago I filed close to the deadline, as that year I was forced to file by paper due to someone else claiming one of our dependents. But most years, I file in January or early February. ---

I did the taxes a couple of months ago. We owe couple hundred dollars. I didn’t file then so I could look to see if I could fenagle something so we don’t owe. I didn’t find anything worth doing for a couple hundred dollars. Forgot about them until last week but was busy last week. I’ll be filing them this afternoon. ---

I finalized about 3 weeks ago, sent the payment in Friday. Pretty sure this is the latest I’ve ever done taxes, but I knew we were going to owe and spent time trying to figure out how to minimize that. Child #2 did their taxes last night, sending out today. Could have done previously, but I needed him to be around to do his part. Which … in the future, I may just do his and then have him review it and make sure he’s good with it and then send out, because he 🤬 through trying to do it, because in general he doesn’t have patience and the more he 🤬 the more he has the patience of a pissed off rattlesnake. Did taxes for the bonus kids last night and this morning; one has both returns accepted, the other we’re trying to get their state return accepted - but if it doesn’t, we’re only out $25. ---

We already got our refund which went to paying our estimated taxes for the next year. ---

Filed at the end of march. Never in a hurry to do it, but also don’t want to forget and have to scramble to deal with it near the deadline. ---

> [@Breadmaker](#): > > I will file close to April 30. 🇨🇦 In the U.S. you can file your return immediately and schedule the payment for the filing deadline day (usually 04/15)…that way you can still earn that precious interest on your hard earned money . ---

i filed 3 weeks ago. refunds both state and fed. not huge, so I feel good about the witholding that is set. also saved time this year by just assuming the standard deduction and not wasting time itemizing and then using the default. ---

Calc’d my taxes in late February. Submitted federal then because they owed me. Submitted state on Saturday because I owed them. ---

Filed in early February. While not as cool as the year where federal refund/underpayment exactly equaled 0, my state refund was $1 different than the amount I owed the feds. ---

Filed shortly after the deadline for all documents to be in. Thankfully after leaving my last company I didn’t need to deal with 2 rounds of corrected W-2s. Owed like $4,000… I assume it’s a bump in salary that resulted in me underwithholding for salary from my previous employer. Or maybe I’m just withholding wrong. Should check it. ---
