not looking forward to mine at all, earned most of my money in the uk and paid a shitload of taxes on it which i am yet to see back, probably because hm treasury needs to pay for the bailout :(

the law is no protection
for some reason TurboTax wanted to charge me 15 dollars this year. also, some stupid company this year paid me 130 dollars as an independent contractor so I have to file a totally separate schedule (C) for this and also can't do a 1040EZ because of it. thanks, guys.

I did my taxes, and OWE $120 because I took out the money I saved up from Teacher Retirement Services. They (TRS) took taxes out when I cashed out the account, but apparently the government felt I wasn't fucked enough as is.

I didn't even make $20k last year (including the TRS payout), and my former roommate made just over $30k and got ALL of his taxes back (just over $1k). What the fuck.

I owe a little over 200 because my uni and the company I worked for through my uni (as an independent contractor) didn't take any taxes out of their payments to me. I should have caught this. woops. I can't wait to do taxes next year because I will have had only one job for the entire year.
