If it’s July, it must be time for… taxes? Yep, last year’s tax post came right on schedule in mid-April. But this year… well, you know. According to those in the know, there’s gonna be a big backlog if you waited until the last minute to file, especially if you filed a paper return. On the bright side, the IRS’ budget for enforcement is way down again this year, so the time has never been riper for “creative accounting.” You can read all about that, here. Bottom line, by doing our taxes at the last minute, we once again successfully avoided divorce – but only by a whisker. Any way you slice it, that’s cause for great rejoicing – even if the paperwork did run to a ridiculous 58 pages this time.
When it comes time for taxes, thank God for TaxAct and TurboTax.
