Just finished filing my Federal taxes online. I guess I have my deductions all correct and everything, since I'm getting a little teensy bit back. I'm not complaining. Hello, money!
I'm frustrated, though, because I couldn't file my State return. I had to file my Federal return as "single" because the poopyhead Feds won't recognize my legal marriage, but then when I went to do the State part, there was no way for me to change it and it would only let me file State as single.
And I don't /want/ to file as single (and it wouldn't technically be legal anyway, since in this State we /are/ married)... so I didn't file. Poo.![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)
bellabooks had told me that when she did her tax return there was a spot in her State return that asked if she was in a same-sex marriage or something like that... but not mine. I guess when Jen comes home I'll do her taxes with a different free tax prep company and see if something comes up. Otherwise, we'll just have to get forms for our State return and mail them in.
Jen's return is always much more exciting, though. Those big student loans have to count for SOMETHING.
(My student loan interest - $190. Her student loan interest - $4500.)
