1. I failed to sign my NYS tax return. They sent me a form to sign and send back. It took about 2 months to receive my refund as opposed to a few weeks if I had done it properly.

2. I discovered this the hard way one year. Oops.

4. Oops.

   I just mailed my AZ state taxes in a few days ago, and I don’t remember if I signed the return.

5. Very timely reminder. I make a habit of checking our returns a few times. I’m guessing the IRS doesn’t have a well developed sense of humor. Now, how long until Tax Freedom Day ?

6. Uh oh.

   My accountant flavored missus filed my tax return. I got this post in my RSS reader this morning and realized, quite to my horror, that I didn’t sign my return.

   Upon emailing her at work, she doesn’t remember signing hers either.

   We mailed out our returns a week ago. I had to pay this year because I’m an independent contractor. We’re both getting refund adjustments and she’s getting an epic return.

   Anyone know what’ll happen? I’m assuming they’ll send it back with a form as dreamy1 commented, but do you think we’ll still get our adjustments? Will I have to pay a penalty since I had to send a check?

   I’m a freaking moron, man.

7. I filed my federal and state taxes with the wrong SSN for my wife (transposed 2 digits) and I finally got a reply from IRS. However, the reply said nothing about the wrong SSN, just that I forgot to sign the return. Duh. So I have to write real big on the papers I’m returning to please correct the SSN problem too (and I’ve called them numerous times.)

   Since I’m not getting a refund from federal, I’m not antsy to get this done quickly, unless it severely impacts my rebate (not that I’m counting on that for anything either). The state, however, is a refund and I’m still waiting on them to refile my amended return.
