Money Money
I am sitting here trying to figure out how the IRS works when it comes to tax refunds. I did my taxes online (here’s a plug to Tax ACT). It was very easy took me about an hour (mostly because my computer was slow) and when I was done I e-filed so I didn’t need to send anything in. Then I just printed my taxes out and put them in my safe place. After that, I did my boyfriend taxes- again took me a little under an hour and did the same thing. Both of us were getting back money from federal, and so we are very excited. Yesterday, he called me to say that his money was directly deposited into his account yesterday! This confuses me….I did my tax returns before his, and I still don’t have my refund! I was sitting here thinking that it must be first come, first serve, but apparently I was wrong! Is it just random when they send the deposits out? Or is there something that I don’t know about? Either way, I’d like to know, as I am so excited to receive my money! After all, I am going on vacation next week.
