My federal return was "accepted" by IRS later the same day, and Delaware accepted my state return a day later. They say three weeks, but I'm willing to bet I get my returns in two or less.

The Trump cut lowered by effective rate 2.1% last year, so that was sweet. Delaware actually got worse.
Submitted mine yesterday and they were "accepted" by the Feds, North Carolina and South Carolina in an hour. They estimated a refund by Feb 22. We'll see.

Effective Tax Rate
2017- 14%
2018- 6.09%
Nice. Your effective tax rate is a third of mine. Plus, I also pay child support that I can't deduct and that she doesn't have to claim as income. And she gets both of the child tax credits.

Wheeeeeeeeee!!!!!!!!!!

Yeah, I was happy. I had a huge tax bill in 2017 that we've been paying monthly installments. Thankfully that'll be paid off as soon as I get that refund check. The tax rates between NC and SC are striking, that helped a lot as well.

I ran my numbers through TurboTax yesterday for a sanity check and got basically the same answer as TaxAct:evil: . This tax reform hosed me - I didn't change my witholdings from last year and yet I'm paying the Feds double what I did last year. :ohno:
I'm getting enough back to pay what I still owe the Feds from 2017 and to pay off a small loan. I hve to change my withholdings this year, between a bonus and a raise i'm afraid it's going to cost me.


I'm looking forward to the $400 extra dollars a month
Thanks Obama

Just did my return.

Federal AGI up 2.1% Federal tax up 7.6% :evil:
State AGI up 2.1% State tax up 24.4% :evil: :evil: :evil: :evil:

State tax increase caused because I can no longer itemize on the federal.

Maybe Chuck and Nancy were right. This was not a good deal for me.

Yep, take the money out of the bank in withdrawls & put in under "Gifts by Cash" on your itemized deductions. You'll have the bank statements as your backup if needed....

The new 1040 is stupid. They claim that it's easier, but it's not even close. It's much worse. Going back and forth to and from the new schedules is both time consuming and confusing. Give me my 1040A back!

There's a reason why 1040 is the second-most evil number in the universe!

I actually do mine by hand as well - too cheap to spend the $30-$40 on TurboTax. Free fillable forms has always worked for me.

I haven't looked at a 1040 in probably 15 years.

Plus I don't think you'd want to put yourself in a situation where you couldn't prove you'd made the child support payments.
