California Tax Return
Quote from the latest update:
"Due to the state’s persistent cash and budget problems, the State Controller has directed FTB to stop sending refund requests to the State Controller’s Office for payment. Refund payments will resume when the State Controller indicates there is enough cash available to make refund payments."

the use of this particular word pisses me off. i'm not REQUESTING my money.. i'm legitimately demanding it... f*cktards.
alrighty.. well i just came from my tax guy... in the past i usually get a good amount back.. but this year didn't come out too well..
so yeah.. i really don't care for the state tax refund... why you ask?? BECAUSE I FREAKIN OWE TO THE STATE! BS! how bout this? since the state is giving you guys a IOU? i'll give the state an IOU payment?

I just started working for the state last march. I loved my job and how "secure" it was supposed to be. A lot has happened in the past few weeks, from hearing they are gonna lay off state workers because they are going broke, and now the latest, taking 10 percent of everyones pay. You may have heard state workers get 1st and 3rd fridays off in order to take their 10 percent? Guess what, I have to work those days and they are still taking 10 percent from me. I don't even want to think about this tax return now.
so I went to my accountant today to file my taxes and he said state will give me an 'IOU' ??? wtf is that?!. It was first that they were going to delay it for a month, but now they don't know when they'll pay us, if ever? 
bunch of poor motherfokkers sucking up state services, along with bad budgeting by politicians= tax payer getting PWND. If it was several hungred bux, I wouldn't give a shat, but I should be getting a very significant amount!
No mods for me

sucks, but not surprising given the California monetary situation
but, better tax planning on your part would also mean no refund to even have to deal with....worth talking to your accountant about

Its amazing to see how our politicians can do absolutely the wrong thing on a continuous basis and remain oblivious to reality.

They must live in a different dimension from the rest of us.
EDIT: or they must look down on their constituents as nothing more than septic bacteria.

GET YOUR TORCHES AND PITCHFORKS READY!!!
Not looking forward to the "IOU" call from my accountant either... Funny (not) before they announced it, my wife predicted the state issuing IOU's and I said, "Never happen..."
I hate it when she's right... I hate it when I'm wrong too, but I hate it when I'm wrong about something she's right.

^^^ AHAHAH isn't that the way it always works... when shes right your wrong, when your right your wrong.
anyway the whole situation sucks but I only would be getting $10 back so... maybe if gas doesn't go up anymore i could buy a quarter tank of gas.

Here is a solution I posted on another forum to get around this if you really really need the money.
