Does our refund count as part of our 6 month income? If it does we will be over the median and we can not pass the means test(yet we are negative every month on I and J). We are set to file Thursday but I will call the lawyer Monday and see if we should reschedule for Sept. 1 if it is included(it was received in Feb.). I hate calling though because to talk to the lawyer it is billed and I keep getting warned not to listen to the paralegal who is the one our questions are handled by.
We will probably be paying this year(on 80K income we have paid 250.00 YTD for federal) so I am not concerned with them having an interest in the 2009 refund since I know there won't be one.
Also if it makes a difference, I worked in 08 and we filed our taxes jointly but I no longer work and I am not actually filing bk all of our debts are in my husbands name so he is the only one actually filing even though it feels like I am since I handle everything. The refund was 1029.00 federal and 588.00 state(NC) and was used to pay other taxes, hoa dues, debt, ext.
A month of waiting is worth it if it means we aren't above the median, IMO.
Thanks,
