Cathy is right when she said she was delusional if she thought this year would be any different. Must admit I have the same issue. Every year I promise myself I will file all the receipts properly as they come in and every year I scramble looking for at least one that was not filed but left in a pile with other papers. Ah well, at least I start the process early enough to give myself time to find anything. Back in my much younger years I would wait until the last moment or, for many years, filed late. Fortunately there are no penalties for late filing when you are getting a refund. Cannot do that now though since we both have income, a pension income, and dividends. Maybe some day I will be able to guess what I will have to pay in taxes the next year and make regular quarterly payments to avoid the shock.
Have a great Thursday today. For those looking forward to a long weekend – enjoy the last working day of the week.
