We used to like the "forced savings" of getting a large refund.
Then times change and we needed every bit each month, so we had our withholdings adjusted.
Then we owed for 2 years and so we e-filed on tax day....no sense in paying them back early.
Last yr was a minimal refund with our employment situation changing during the year. We e-file and get Fed return back fairly quickly.
However, NC was the slowest return EVER. They were delaying refunds because they could not afford to actual pay out the refunds. There was a date set....like mid May or something, where if you did not recieve your refund then the state owed you interest.
If you are owed a refund with NC, then you are doing good. I got $1700 back from federal and still owed $100 with NC. I file my federal taxes as soon as possible and wait until 4/15 to file state. I don't know why NC taxes are so high.
