yeah... i owe alot of money.  I am not going to share details but well over a grand.  Pretty crippling for me.  I could use some prayer in general.  I am pretty depressed right now.  Not too sure what to do.  I am probably getting another job thru the summer as I applied for an extension.

WAIT... you were still married for over half the year. Did you file as married, filing separately and did you claim your kids? If not, you need to.

I don't know how similar filing taxes is in the US compared to Canada. Can you do paper vs online?
We did ours online this year and it calculated my wife and my numbers, and applied the various benefits dynamically to whatever person, to receive the best tax rate for the overall family. It was well worth the 20$ fee. I don't know what your options are like in the US.

Wow... yeah that was totally different for us. Getting married was a lovely tax break for me. Again, are you sure that's being calculated to your benefit?

jonathan, I got divorced in 2007 Roll Eyes...that is the problem.  Me having the deductions taken out for the 9 months i was married hurt me when i filed.  She has the full-custody of the kids and i get visitation.  That means I do not get to claim them at all.

Had a rough day and it I really dont know what I am going to do...anyway I covet your prayers!

OK... I'm wrong Sad

My apologies. I assumed you married someone with kids. Stupid assumptions.

Praying for you bro.
God knows, remember that.

Wow. That seems like a mess. I know nothing about filing as a family, or with kids, or anything of the sort. It doesn't seem right that your ex gets all the breaks. (assuming she does, I have no idea)

Did you know there is NO LAW that you must file federal taxes to begin with? Honest to goodness.

Problem is...

1) No file this year, you no get rebate.
2) No file, you go to jail for tax evassion.
3) What you are saying isn't true.
