IRS will begin processing tax returns today have you filed yet?

How did you file? Through what service?

Taxslayer.com. Been using them the last 5 years.

That's a good plan. Are you claiming 0 on your W4 or 1? Does your company have a 401k or retirement plan? Contributing a small amount into one of those can decrease your taxable income and may balance out things. I hate for you to owe them anything.

apparently last year I did 1 I dunno what it was years past. This year I’m going to almost double what I made in 18 so I changed it to 0. I have a 401k I contribute to. Maybe I need to increase my percentage. If I end up owing a lot in the future I’m going to have a professional do my taxes.

I'm kinda worried brehs because this is my Last W2 from my old job... I gotta start all over I might even get that much back this year all things considered how 2018 I was in the hospital for 2 weeks and out for 3 months sick.

Yes! Definitely increase your contributions, get your taxable income down lower. Rather your money go there than to the IRS. FSA's and HSA's are good too, if they are an option. Try the W4 withholding calculator to see what numbers it gives you. Withholding Calculator

Worried about what?

Cause I gotta start from scratch now is all...

You mean from scratch as far as finding a new job? If so, the new company will give you a new W2 at the end of the year. Sorry, I'm not being smart, I just don't understand what you mean.

Just saying I was always working is all, and did my taxes faithfully I just hope when I get a new job it wont be a lapse or some bullshyt that the IRS wouldn't penalize me for...

Damn I’m shocked how fast they’re processing. I figured you’d have to wait a month for them to catch up

 

[born of fire]

my w2 comes today so i'll file when i get home.

i wasnt making enough these last few years to file but i think this finally the year.

 

[YouMadd?]

Just finished this morning.... This shyt takes about a month right?

 

[The Intergalactic Koala]

Waiting on me and my wife's W2s. I got one from my new job though

 

[YouMadd?]

if you get anything back then you are an idiot

Why do you feel that way? Idiot is a strong word to claim on more than half the country....

I think it is because they aren't auditing people.
