So that's something

Sounds helpful!

Somewhat in that it's something I HAD to do before the end of October. Not so much in that I owe money.

Which is part of the reason I dragged my feet submitting my taxes. Trying to find any other deduction I thought I could dig up.

Fair

I have an international curiosity question, how much work is it for you to do your taxes?

Not a lot for me as I have simple taxes. I work for companies large enough that they report their workers salaries to the government. And we have a system so that is automatically uploaded to the online tax form the government offers for free for people to use.

Most everything gets reported there automatically for me. As I'm also with mostly major banks - they have to upload my interest earnings and my health care provided also reports that I'm a member

For me the most work I do is report all the tax deductions I can claim. Like donations and work related expenses

It's actually amazingly simple to do compared to the US taxes I have to do

Maybe if I had stocks or investment properties it would be harder, but lol, too broke for those

oh shoot I need to do that!

You're welcome for the reminder!

As someone with one lum set of stocks given by my grandmother years ago. They also get reported straight to the tax office and is refilled on your taxes. I think at this point it gets complicated if you have a business, and assets. Especially overseas assets.
