Boy, am I a lucky duck!!!!
State announced for sure it wouldn't issue refunds for tax returns filed this week or later. (Can't afford to pay them right now - delayed at least 30 days - but who knows how long).
Anyway, I got my taxes filed last Monday, after the announcement. I had the feeling I would get it, but wasn't 100% sure.
Well, my check arrived today!!!!!!!!!
Woohoo!
I got $550 for my savings account...
& yes, I lowered my withholdings. Whatever California. You don't want to issue refunds? Then I will just pay you less. I overpaid because Cali is a PITA to figure out so I just told my boss to wihhold $50 a paycheck. This year I decided $30. Yeesh.
Cali sent my refund!

Really, we're so glad to be done with them!
I'm thinking we won't get a refund, but I'm not sure. I tightened things up last year.

You can complain to the IRS after Feb. 15th. Not that it matters much.
I'd personally file my taxes without the W-2, hehe. But you know, I could figure it out since I prepare a ton of W-2s every January. The companies do not have to file W-2s with the IRS until March so it's not like it really matters, if you KNOW what the numbers are.
