Just a reminder if your refund is a nice size you should check into changing your withholdings so you can have more in every paycheck vs Uncle Sam having your money tax free for a year then giving it back to you.

We pre-file a week before the IRS actually starts accepting the forms. So we filed Monday and come Sat. they e-filed as soon as IRS opened.

We go to Jackson Hewitt. They do all the normal stuff like if we had waited a week to file. But once everything is done its stored in the system at Jackson Hewitt. Then come SAt. as soon as the IRS starts accepting the claims its automatically sent in.

Yes but you still have to have your w2 beforehand right? I use a local accountant here. They send it in every Thursday.

We got our W2 on the 8th via the net. And Jackson Hewitt could get your W2 via the internet on the 10th if your comp used a specific program or comp to put the W2 together. Here is a link to that:

Here... or There... Hmmm
I file rather soon as I do other peoples taxes too and one year nearly lost out on e-filing my own, so since mine are easy and I already have all my stuff, they will be going soon enough.
