They can apply for a filing pin from the IRS. No need to rush at that point.
Being alive or dead makes you vulnerable to identity theft, those are the only two pre requisites.Yes, my parents have that now.
Its funny how they have had this happen twice to them and they do not use computers for anything and go to an accountant for their taxes.
I thought it was the computer that makes us all vulnerable, but apparently not.
I use turbotax because it makes it so easy and straightforward. Ours are about 75% done. I’m still waiting for two T4 (don’t know the US equivalent) of mine. When I get them I just have to plug in the numbers and then it’s done. Well, besides playing with our credits to see if it’s better for me or my husband to claim them.
We’re the dopes (please don’t lecture on a better way to do things, we’re very happy with how we do it) that get a huge refund at tax time. It’s like our second Christmas because it’s when we get to splurge a bit. I think mine for the year will be a tattoo..not a huge splurge but still something ‘extra’.
We look it like that too. It’s kind of a savings fund for us. It’s money we don’t really “see” so we don’t miss it, but it’s nice to get it back!No lecture here. I like getting a large refund too. The way I see it, I'll just spend an extra fifty a well on little things but that extra 2000 at tax time will pay for a vacation
