It's that time of the year again

[slow84lx]

E-filed tonight. Feels good to have this over & done with. Normally I am a last minute filer. Will get a small refund but this past year was figured almost spot on for me. The chump change coming back will put a new set of brakes on the DD & might stretch to cover a chicken sammich.

Pay a partial for a few of my cousins to get over to the US from Mexico.

Who left the door open for the slore?

Gozer.

I honestly have no idea this year. I usually dial it in to be close to zero or a little owed, but we have some unique circumstances this year.

I had two more kids this year, my wife stopped working and I paid off my mezz debt on the house. I don't have a damn clue where I am at either but I am assuming I am better off than last year.

Yeah, same here. With how my year ended mine is big enough to make a house payment and have plenty left over. Which is what I'll use it for.

Just because people generally use it incorrectly doesn't mean we should just accept that the terms are interchangeable. You should probably read what IRS.gov is asking before using that as your evidence. A tax return is the document, tax refund is the *hoped for* result.

The answer to the question "What are you going to do with your tax return?" is "File all of the required financial documents that my tax return asks me to supply and hope I don't owe any money and might end up with a tax refund."

They are complementary, not interchangeable terms.

Who gives a fuck?

You did not seriously use Wiki as some sort of definitive resource?

They can easily be interchangeable, if you take them in context.

Did you know know what the OP was asking? Did you think the OP was asking how you were going to file? Clearly you understood that the OP was asking what you will do with your refund, assuming you are getting one after filing your return.

But rather than simply answering the question, you first chose to try and show your perceived intellectual superiority over the OP.

All that said, good luck on your tax return. I hope you get a refund so you can get your plastic whale-tail for your car.

True, purely semantics. And definitions change over time based on usage. So don't try to correct people when you don't know wtf you're talking about.

Not to be confused with Tax refund.

I'm no accountant, but you have to file a tax return whether you receive a refund or not.

Just semantics, though.

I broke even at $0 last year...it was epic.

Going for doubles this year.

I've enjoyed the extra $40 or so per paycheck.

[DasVWBabe]

Or maybe it's both? Considering that even the IRS uses the term "Tax Return":
