I'm doing 17 things
I thought I was all done with my taxes, and then I get a call from my mom saying that I had a W-2 waiting for me. I am glad that I usually wait a week after I finish before sending off my taxes for these types of situations.
This time I will be getting back a nice lump sum because I bought my first house last year. The only thing I see is that the First-Time Homebuyer Credit is really just an interest-free loan. Why would they not give us this credit with no penalties, especially with everyone struggling? I’m kind of thinking that I am not going to take it because then I have to pay the damn loan, which is masquerading as a credit, back every time I apply for taxes for the next 15 years. This is crazy.
This year is the last year that I am doing it using Turbotax. Next year, I am going to hire an Accountant.
