We got ours back a month or so ago. I think it was 5-6K. They tell me every year to have less withheld, but I like the refund. How much of that 5-6k would be left if you had it in your hot little hand to spend? I'm betting not much for most people.

we are getting back a good amount, but it could take another 6-8 weeks. Someone hacked my wife's works HR dept and got every ones SS. So when we tried to file electrically it was rejected cause someone had already filed under my wife's ss number.

You can avoid having ulcers by adapting to the situation: If you fall in the mud puddle, check your pockets for fish. ~Unknown
Open your eyes & look within, are you satisfied with the life youre living.
No matter how good or bad you have it, wake up each day thankful for your life. Someone somewhere else is desperately fighting for theirs.

Did they get caught? don't know just know we had to fill out an affidavit with proof of who my wife was. Had to send in copies of wife's DL, passport, and SS card

I'm real curious to know how often that is done...check written and cashed.
I had my credit card # stolen and used in Tampa to pay a water bill ($250). They knew who did it...cause they tracked my "payment". I asked if they would go after that person...they said NO.
BTW it happens daily they said. I wonder if that happens with taxes too. I bet so.

And if it's done to taxes, that means we as tax payers are paying for the "loss" to the budget.

They also got to my bank accounts. I had to run to tyler during the OT Tourney to put some cash in the bank due to someone using our account online. Was a real pain in the A. Her company has now paid for a years worth of credit protection with experian.

We get a check for 6K+.
Renting the shop and the new welder were big deductions.
Plus the large charitable contributions.
Or the fact we changed CPA'S and are now using a retired 2 star General.

Did you owe or get a refund? Not really a meaningful question. The meaningful question is "What was your effective tax rate for 2016?" Mine was zero, but only because I had a huge tax credit for all the tuition and fees I paid. Trust me, I'd rather have paid $2,000 in taxes than $22,000 in tuition. This is exactly correct. I got back just shy of $10K this year. That doesn't make me feel any better about the amount I paid them over the course of the year which was many times that $10K. That's us, and we're still no better off than before.
