Same here!

Main reason I do it is that I'm ineligible to use the free online filing services, due to making over 80 grand, and being required to file Sched E & 4562 & D & 8949 & others.

We converted all our savings to cash accounts when Bidog was elected you don’t get much interest from a savings account. But we have almost no earned income. I refuse to support this wasteful, dishonest government.

If Trump gets spending under control I’ll reconsider that position.

We’ve g one Galt. I like it that way.

Many of those IRS bureaucrats sitting in hi rises on the fedgov payroll wanted to be part of that 87,000 armed IRS commando action force! A massive armed task force to go after Ma and Pa, like the couple in Michigan living in a 25 year old travel trailer who sold stuffed beavers, making over $625. last year.

I do the same. I also send it by certified mail because those MF-ers have lost my return at least twice in the past.

“IRS will lay off thousands of probationary workers in the middle of tax season”

Ok, DEMOCRATS, tell us why it’s so bad to get rid of IRS types. (and good luck winning an election after that)

Predictable result: IRS will slow roll tax refunds blaming staff shortage (even though these are part of the giant new wave and weren't there last year), people will howl, Trump will be blamed.

Be prepared for that.

Hope nobody here is counting on a tax refund to make ends meet anytime soon.

If you ask for assistance from the IRS when filing your return, make SURE you get their name because I had occasion to speak to 3 different IRS agents the same question and I got three different answers.

Won’t bother me. For many years I’ve adjusted my withholding to ensure I owe a little.

What in the world was the IRS thinking when it hired all those people on parole?
