Tax man: Historically at tax time, you believed that everyone else knew something and that you, alone, were the idiots. But this year we learned that everyone's an idiot! All the experts are idiots! No one knows anything at all!! Compared to the nincompoops who got us into this big mess, you're geniuses!! Ta Da! Tax relief, 2009! Cathy: That's our tax relief?? Irving: Keep talking! I feel way better!
-nods- For something we have to do every year, they could make it so much simpler.
There’s the EZ form but that could stand to be easier yet.
When I moved here to Canada, I was sort of glad my husband used H&R Block. If it gets screwed up, its on their heads.
With me still earning US income, things get a bit complicated, but it’s good the US tax day is about 2 weeks before the Canadian one. I file US first and while it’s included in the Canadian tax form, I don’t get taxed for it… though I think I might get some extra from Canada…
I just don’t know why either country cares. I’m filing in both countries so long as I get an income. Why should Canada care what I make there?
