!#&% E-FILE


So I'm going about my business filing my taxes.
They ask if I want to E-file?
I think to myself, well ok we can try, but last year it didn't work.
I push the button.
yup, they won't let me.
So I think to myself, what the heck is wrong????
They refer me to the IRS.
Oh no, I get to sit on hold for ever...
So they tell me that my Birthday is wrong and to call Social Security.
More waiting on hold...
Ahh, when I changed my name, eeons ago, when I got married someone put it in wrong!!
Can you believe that?
How fun for me.
I got to spend an hour and a half in a room full of strangers and screaming kids.
Did I say a stuffy crowded room? yeah it was.
Cat came with me, she got to change her name to her married name.
We got so bored that we named the people behind the glass.
Moustache man
Big guy
Perky girl
Only 3 windows were open. 3!
It was so much fun!!
Really.
I was called first.
Cat was called after me.
She was done before me.
*sigh*
Oh well, all done now!
Oh, BTW, did I mention that the IRS did not get out taxes from last year?
Yup, they said, well it looks here like you attempted to file 4 times, but it never worked.
I had printed and mailed them out, grrr!
I get to do that again too!
Do ya think I will get to e-file this time??
