I don't understand. what does it mean? I've never filled out forms

If you made below a certain amount of money, (which I'm sure you didn't make much) the IRS is holding on to money that really belongs to you. They take a percentage of your paycheck every time you get paid. Just go to TurboTax, fill in the numbers from your papers, and get money in 2-4 weeks

Use Turbo Tax. It will literally walk you through the form. All you basically need to do is enter your personal information and your income. It will ask you about a lot of deductions but you probably will not qualify for any of them. It's a very time consuming process. It stresses me out every time but filing your taxes really is not challenging. Not for someone like me who doesn't have assets or anything.

The refund is nice. I use it to buy vidya.

they withheld barely over $100
my problem is I worked another job for a few days before I quit and I don't know how to add my wages together or which to use. it's worth losing $100 to me to not have the government bother me

You're already past the due dat (April 15th). I'm pretty sure even if you don't pay owe taxes it is still illegal to not file and receive your refund.

So much for "land of the free".

tax day 2017 is today, 4/18, which is why I made the thread. I always wait until the last minute because forms scare me
but the pic >>36373072 says if no return is filed in 3 years the government just keeps the money

I think there are ways you can file after the due date, or maybe on next year's form. I doubt they're going to throw some poor schmuck in jail for tax evasion when he only owes $100.

the government has my $100 and I'm going to let them keep it.
fuck forms and normies who act like you can fill out a hundred little boxes and not mess anything up with your calculations and get in trouble
I'm just not smart enough guys. I can't do it

If the government owes you money they don't care if you fill out the forms or not.

If you are too retarded to fill out the forms I think they are obligated to provide someone to help you.

I can't just fill in the blanks
I have two forms with wages and numbers on them. one from each job
I don't know how to do the numbers together on in the form

You do know there's a company called Liberty Tax where you can just walk in and they will file for you? They take a small percentage out of your refund and all you have to do is fill out a form listing your basic info and where you want the money deposited, give it to them, and they do the rest for you on the computer.

earned income tax credit probably makes it worth filing your taxes.

turbotax is free if you make under like $50k a year. and it's not like filling out a 1040 is hard -- it literally gives you step by step instructions. fuck, you're dumb and lazy. i hope the IRS fucking imprisons you.

I learned today 4/18 isn't the deadline for getting my $100. I have 3 years to do the form.
so I don't need to worry for 2 years
