I'm still deeply hurt that you didn't ask moi to sign your passport application, but I'll let that slide.
[removes back of hand from forehead, it's much easier to type with two hands]
as to income tax: I'm still awaiting a couple of charity receipts, and of course the T4 [statement of income earned] from my employer. They've got until 28 February to mail them, though.
Usually the paper forms arrive from the Canada Revenue Agency in a big bulky package between Christmas and New Year -- this year at that time, a slim #10 envelope, with code numbers in it, arrived. All becoz last year I succumbed and paid $16 to have software do my taxes and generate a file I then emailed to the CRA.
For years I did my taxes the first weekend in March (right after the last information slips and receipts appeared), dropped 'em in the mail, and (this being 7 weeks before the deadline) the money appeared in my account quite promptly - usually before the 15th of the month. It was kinda fun, driving my own spreadsheet and all. But last year there were hiccups with a (significantly large) receipt, so it was the end of March before I could file, and I didn't want to get caught up in the delay. Hence the investment of $16.
They're more addictive than nicotine, or even Girl Guide [Scout] Thin Mint Cookies. MY that was easy, and the refund was in my account within a week. I'm never going back to my own spreadsheet for tax calculations. It was like the first time I had a push-button phone (as opposed to a rotary dial).
and as soon as the refund comes, a large dent will be put in the mortgage.
