DO NOT use FileYourTaxes.com no matter what the IRS tells you about it being a preferred service provider.

Once you create an account you cannot delete it, nor any of the financial data you provide. What's more... no 2-factor login.

The website is awful and all you'll get are form letter responses from an unmanaged email address you're given to request account deletion.

None of this is disclosed until you've created the account.

Beware! Avoid!

It's that bad time of the year when we as Americans must file taxes before the deadline of April 15th.

Today was my day, and taxes have been filed, as much as I hate to do it, simply because I owe a ton of money due to being a contractor!

Hopefully that's all about to change, very soon!

Good morning and happy Friday!

Got some things to get out the door today, so going to be busy...until I'm not. Likely doing my taxes tonight which...is the latest I've done them.

But, you know what, it needs to get done.

Hope you all have a lovely Friday and weekend.

Good morning and happy Friday to the #Fediverse today.

Let's all discuss what the day holds for us today as well as the weekend ahead.

Work stuff for a bit, then I'm off to file my taxes, which is a horrible time of year, but it's got to be done.

Tonight is Fortnite with friends like we do each Friday. Hoping to get some more time in with Horizon Forbidden West as well.

An image with a yellow background that says Happy Friday. There is an animated emoji showing off 3 or 4 different emoji.

"The modern is supposed to be pro-family, pro-tax-cuts and anti-“waste, fraud and abuse.” So why are trying to tank a bill that is all three?

In January, lawmakers hammered out a kids-and-companies deal: would extend a few business tax breaks that had recently expired in exchange for expanding the . The bipartisan compromise turned out to be a very good bill"

On a more pressing note…see where your state lands on the tax list. My state is in the top 10, but I love it here after living in a low tax state that didn’t even provide snow plowing after a blizzard. “You get what you pay for”…and “the only guarantee in life is death and taxes.”

I am on hold with the Canada Revenue Agency and they haven't changed their hold music for at least 5 years.

I filed my taxes over the weekend, and I was amazed at the dark patterns TurboTax gets away with to try to convince you to give up your data. The wording and style is similar to other legitimate tasks you need to complete in the final review stage.

Once you click review and sign, you're presented with a disclosure of what you're signing.

Dean Obeidallah opens his commentary about Trump's gala to fleece super-rich Republicans in Palm Beach last weekend by reminding us of a meeting Hitler held with super-rich German business leaders in 1933. He promised them if they'd give money to the Nazi party, he'd end democracy to benefit them. And give they did, lavishly so.

"On Saturday night, Trump convinced 117 extraordinarily wealthy people to give him $50 million at a campaign fundraiser at the Palm Beach home of billionaire investor John Paulson. They believe that if Trump becomes president again, he’ll give them another big tax cut."
