We don't get a refund.  We have to pay :(

I hope you don't have to pay too much LM.

  My parents have to fork out 4 grand ish.  Yikes!

  ADD:  I selected "Pay Bills" option.  If I could, I would also select "Spend money down in the States!"    

Lil Me

I hope so too.
 Gotta do my tzxes sometime this week.

P.C.

I'm uninspired and unmotivated.

Me too!  I actually have until June to file, but might as well do it now.  My balance is due Apr 30, anyways.

Add it to savings until I decide what I'm going to treat myself to.

 Buy yourself a brand new hat, for sure!
 
 ADD: Finally got my taxes done.  We both need to pay :(  I had payroll deductions withheld during the year, so I only need to pay a bit more. Mr LM had no payroll deductions, so he needs to pay quite a bit more- but a chunk of it is also a CPP contribution.
 
 Maybe I'm too optimistic, but I choose to view CPP contributions as a future credit instead of a current liability.

I've just received something called a "pre-tax refund". Does anyone have any idea what this means? It sounds as though I'm getting a refund for tax which I haven't paid - can this be right?

Go on...take the money and run...
