not sure what amount I'm getting back, but whatever it is, I'm using it to help paint Mayhem. Last year, the difference between Ryan and I filing together than filing seperate was only about $50.

Actually there are MANY, MANY different ways for this to happen. You can claim more dependents than you actually have but once you own a buiseness and such it gets even easier.

We always do them as soon as we get all the forms, your return will go through so much faster if you don't wait. Plus we're getting money back so why wait?
True!! Why wait to get your money!!

By law companies have to mail out W2's no later than February 1st I believe. And since I have a son...I will be getting back a hefty amount. So far the plans are to pay off my car, pay off all my credit card debts and buy a new Big screen TV for my new house. Any money left over will obviously be put into the Z though

...Damn, man, how much money do you get back? 
I'm lucky if I get 300. Last year I think I got like $150 back, but I had to pay like $50-$75 to get my taxes done, so it just sucked worse. Thankfully this year I made more money than last, so hopefully I'll be getting even more back this year...
I don't know how it works out with my dad, but he owes every single year. He's in realestate selling houses, the state considers him self-employed.. I *think* because his checks are not a regular salary like normal jobs and since he only gets paid when he sells a house, I don't think he has federal taxes taken out, or maybe he opted for that, I'm not sure. In any case, I always feel bad for my parents around tax time cause they get hit pretty hard.

Yeah that sucks...You can choose to pay taxes durring the year or not as well as the percentage you pay. Your parents prob just dont have any thing taken out on their weekly checks.
