E-Filing and Still Smiling
Well, we got part of our tax refund! We’ve been waiting for a while. My husband did the taxes using Turbo Tax, an e-filing system. I assumed he’d been able to file for free (last time I paid attention to tax filing, he got it free). However, I caught wind at Common Sense With Money that e-filing is not free anymore! Is this true?? I asked hubs, and he said it cost us $30 plus tax! 
Yow. I guess those free days are over. At least the filing is relatively easy! 
By the way, I’ve heard that if you are a member of State Farm Insurance, you can file for free, up to $50. This is a great deal, so take advantage of it if you can. We, however, do not have any policies with State Farm, so we must still pay.
E-filing is very safe and secure– just be very careful that your network is secure and you have software firewalls. We don’t want criminals to steal your hard-earned cash and go on Gucci handbag spending sprees and carnival cruises, do we? Although, after doing the taxes, a cruise isn’t a bad idea right now…
