I just filed mine and getting a decent amount back but my student loan interest is the big one that builds me up. I also loved the Making Work Pay credit this year for $400 for simply having a job and paying taxes. Lol.

Wait what? You are taking tax breaks? What kind of Democrat are you? You should happily pay your taxes and not ask for any breaks. Think of the poor people that could be fed with your money. You are evil and selfish. 😃

yeah, the deduction for mortgage interest paid rocks. My taxes aren’t THAT high, but it definitely helps.

Most of that is just the $8k for the first-time homebuyer’s credit.

I have already dumped the money into the house, so this stuff will pay-off the new kitchen that is sitting on my credit card. Anything left over will go into the fund for adding on a garage.
