Well, for the past 2 years (since I became a homeowner), I’ve been doing my taxes using TaxCut. Last year, I got both my federal return and my state return in less than 2 weeks. I was MORE THAN PLEASED with my return for only owning a home for 5 months of the past year.
So, I expected similar amounts this year, but in proportion to the whole year. Um… WRONG!!! I ended up getting a little bit less this year. I’m confused, but at least it’s a return, and I don’t have to pay them.
Well, I’ve already submitted my tax returns this year, and have already received my state refund, when I get something interesting in the mail…
I got a 1099 from the state of Virginia, saying that I got a refund of $540 from my taxes last year… and that I need to claim that on my taxes this year.
WHAT???!!!??? You’ve got to be fucking kidding me!!
I have to claim an additional income of $540 that was a return to me because I overpaid my state taxes last year? Didn’t I already claim that amount as income last year? And pay taxes on it? Overpaid it, even? And now I have to claim it this year? Even though I’ve already filed my taxes? FUCK THAT!!!
That sounds like I’m having to pay taxes on the same income twice!!!
