If you were planning on using your refund dollars for a big TV, braces, vacation, or anything else - you are probably going to have to adjust your plans.

Tax refunds are fun money, right? It depends on how you define "fun." It might surprise you what most people are planning to do with the tax refund this year.
And if you're still looking for free tax help in Lufkin, this is where you can find it.

Despite stories about delays with refunds this year, most of the experts seem to think you'll get your tax refund within 21 days of the time you file.  And if taxes stress you out, you may be able to get some free help in Lufkin.

Here comes that tax deadline, which means it's peak demand time and accountants might be charging more than they did earlier in the tax season.  It's true.
But overall, Texans are a lot better off than people in other states when it comes to taxes.

Today, April 15, is Tax Day, and while most of you have filed your 2012 returns, surely some of you out there are going down to the very last minute ... or maybe even a bit beyond. Here are a few important reminders:

There are still a few weeks left to file your 2012 tax return, but April 15 of this year marks another important deadline for taxpayers: it's your last chance to file for a refund on your 2009 taxes.
