    Waiting…

      I just wanted to clarify, once and for all, the difference between a tax refund and a tax return.

      A tax RETURN is all the paperwork you file with the IRS when you do your taxes.

      A tax REFUND is the money you get back from the IRS.
      MThe two terms are not interchangeable and mean completely different things. It irks me when people don’t know the difference and refer to the money they will get as a tax return.

          Looks like “Waiting” there is getting impatient waiting on his meth allowance aka “tax return” or “tax refund” so he came on here to vent a little bit.

          I personally don’t give a sh!t what someone calls it refund or return, but thats I don’t live in a chemically induced world like you “Waiting” and I realize what the individual meant when they said return vs refund.

          Good luck everyone and I hope we ALL update soon and get our RETURN dates!!!!!

            That’s what you worried about, I think everyone on here could give a fuk about the wording, they just want the money! You can call it what ever you want. As soon as they see a ddd you won’t here from them again til next year! Lol

              Occasionally, I “interchange ” the two, mistakenly!

              Good to clarify for those that are perhaps, curious.

              Lol, so no one is waiting on their “return” else, you’d not be waiting for a “refund”.
