2014 Federal Tax Refund

[electronman1729]

Has anyone not gotten their 2014 Tax refund yet?

[Bailey Guns]

Yep...e-filed around March 1st and had the fed refund about 10 days later. First time in years we haven't owed anything (but we only received a refund of about $400).

What's a "tax refund"? You mean, somebody pay too much to the Gov, and the gov send back a check a year later? With or without interest? [Sarcasm2]

[sniper7]

Yep, got mine within a few days

Efiled and got back about $200 in about 2 weeks.... I don't like giving the govt an interest free loan, but I'd like to have to write them a check even less. The $200 paid for part of my bristlecone membership.

I've heard the horror stories of the tax refund fraud going around, and figured it was media over-hype. But a guy I work with had it happen, and one of my wife's friends did as well.

My co-worker went to efile his taxes, and was notified that "he" already received a $5000 refund. Supposedly the address the IRS mailed the check to was the same address used for about 100 other refunds.... How can their computer systems not guess that might be a scam. And the fact that the W2 data the scammer entered to get the fake refund was all completely made up data... Why do we even bother with W2 forms if the IRS doesn't even validate the returns against them.

I had about the same turn around.

Promptly placed an order with SGAmmo out of principle.

My $15 check from the state took about three weeks.

Got mine a long time ago I think we filed in January, to bad I did get to buy anything I really wanted...

See, that's the kind of BS that makes me so mad I could spit nails. The gov extorted an additional 12K from me this year, admittedly not all of it just yet, and now I see where it goes. Graft, fraud, and waste for shit I didn't ask for.

[roberth]

Yes, I received mine about a week after I filed at the end of March.

[Great-Kazoo]

What is this Filing Taxes you speak of ?

[def90]

got mine 3 days ago.. direct deposit

[scratchy]

Filed end of January, was pissed to get a 3k fed/state refund. Made adjustments. I like to owe the bastards less than $500. Got the refund within a week.

Just received mine yesterday. For the first time in my life, I got what I consider to be a lot of money back from taxes. I usually get very little, or owe a little.

I filed February 4th. It took just shy of 3 months to get my federal refund. They wanted a copy of my 1093-A. Once they requested it and I sent it in, it took a couple weeks to get the refund.
