Finally, my tax returns for 2016 are done.
I normally file my Federal return using TurboTax; I file my state return using the State of De e-file website. Since my desktop computer is out of commission, had to use my iPhone6. Worked out better than I thought. Although I got stuck after completing my Federal return. &. could not find the the function to check "no" to filing my State return.
You may ask what 's the big deal - why not file both returns via TurboTax? The big deal is that it only takes three (3) business days for my tax refund to be processed & deposited in my checking account by the State of Delaware. And, my larger refund amount comes from my state taxes. That's why! Filing both tax returns through TurboTax means I have a wait of 12 - 14 days, before receiving my refunds.
I guess I really should not complain. Even waiting just 12 - 14 days is still fairly quick for a tax refund. Plus, I do not itemize (not even charitable giving). So, I'll just shut up & wait.
Now off to make dinner - spaghetti w/ tomato sauce w/ Italian sausage, hot buttered rolls & yellow cake w/ milk chocolate frosting for dessert. Really should not be eating any of this - I have 9 lbs. to lose by the end of this month, just to get back on track!
