Biggest mistake?

Re: Biggest mistake?
Buy a Quicktax package. $19 from Walmart, you will probably only need the basic one (waits to get flamed by everyone). The "Easy Steps" walks you through the forms and you can then print them off - job done

Or if you bank with RBC they do a link to (I think) Quick Tax and you only pay $15. Fill em in and print em off. Then post them - I have forgotten to do this actual bit...which funnily enough is probably the most important bit...!

Re: Biggest mistake?
When printing out your copy to mail make sure you print a copy for your own records.
Also even if you file online print out a copy for yourself.
Not a good idea to keep only an electronic copy on your computer, even backed up to disk is not that great.
Unless Quick Tax has changed recently only the copy for the year of the tax return is capable of allowing you to look at or print that particular return. So you must keep the software for the seven year period.
I hope that made sense.

Re: Biggest mistake?
I feel such a retard as there have been so many threads about tax returns and I completely ignored all of them thinking - well they won't apply to me I have an employer
So sorry guys for you having to type this info out for the squillionth time, I think today has been a mixture of pms and dead people.
I need some rum and coke - hold the coke.

Thinking that prices might increase reasonably.
Property tax 2005 = $1400
2006 = $1700 (21% increase)
2007 = $1900 (11% increase)
2008 = $2050 (8% increase)
That 8% increase this year almost seems a relief.

Re: Biggest mistake?
Now you sound really smart.............so even you should know you can only research so much. Asking the relevant questions you would expect to get appropriate answers.....how do you know, at that stage, they are lies? Further.......you cannot know what the inhabitants of a place are like until you live amongst them. A few weeks reccie doesn't cut it, as we discovered.....so please, less with the smug "Her fault, not ours". It's no-one's fault.........just life. Having lived here for several years, back in the 80's, I can tell you, it was nothing like this.
So many people planning and hoping to come to Canada are filled with the notion that Canadians are so friendly, so welcoming.....it ain't necessarily so!
Oh - and Avril Lavigne tickets?
