February 2006: File My 2005 Tax Return

A RESOLUTION to File My 2005 Income Taxes by February 28, 2006

WHEREAS I am a last-minute income tax filer, often filing on 15 Apr, and

WHEREAS I bought a house in 2005, which will supply me with more tax deductions than I have previously had, and

WHEREAS I feel fairly confident that I can manage filing my 2005 taxes on my own, provided I actually start on time, and

WHEREAS my employer routinely waits until 31 Jan to send out their W-2 forms,

THEREFORE, Let it be hereby resolved by the Board of Directors of GFMorris.com that:

  1. I will attempt to file my 2005 Federal income taxes by 20 Feb 2006.
  2. If my attempt to file on my own is unsuccessful, I will seek a capable tax preparer by 28 Feb 2006 and turn over my documents to them.

THEREFORE Let it be further resolved that a report on the success of this effort be made no later than 2 Mar 2006.

RESOLVED on this, the third day of January, 2006, by the Board of Directors of GFMorris.com, Geof F. Morris, Resident Goofball, presiding.

    Tax Filing SNAFU

    I found out from Scott and confirmed it myself just now: TurboTax.com is having a glitch with getting charitable deductions filed for 2005 federal income taxes. :sigh: I guess I’m going to miss my deadline for filing, but with this much done, I…

    Taxes Filed

    The loud crash you just heard was the world hitting its brakes when it realized I filed my 2005 tax return on 28 Feb 2006. Yep, I’m 2-for-2.
    That refund is going to be nice, too.
