Not all tax rebates are due to the government over collecting either

I'll be getting about $1600-$2000 just because I Used a certain amount of money towards buying my first home. It's not money that I gave the government ahead of schedule, it's money I wouldn't have gotten unless I did certain things and filed certain paperwork.

Yeah, I knew the republicans were about to fuck over homeowners on the 30% solar tax credit.

Pulled the trigger and now I’m getting back 37k this year and the remainder next… worth it.

The goal otherwise should always be to not owe and not get shit back.
