Taxes....

[SuzeQuze]

I tried to e-file but Social Security has the wrong birthdate for me so they wouldn't accept the e-file. I told them I've been filing for years and why is this suddenly brought to my attention? The rep said it was because of 9/11 they're making sure things match. So I sent SS a copy of my birth certificate and a form to fix it. That wasn't enough, they want the original, which I didn't want to send in the mail. What pisses me off about it is I was born in this city so it would be so easy for them to verify this, idiots. I swear sometimes that things are made difficult on purpose. I mean, the one I sent them was from city hall and certified and everything.

However, the state did accept it, the company I used charged $7 for the state e-file while the federal is free. I figured it was worth that. That refund was in my account within 3 days of filing. That was really cool since I have been broke due to a shopping binge. However, since the feds wouldn't accept my e-file I paper filed and still haven't received that refund. But it's only been a couple of weeks. I keep checking my account to see if it's there, no dice! It will fund my trip to Vegas nicely.

Deanna, does this mean you are going to Vegas?
