Or as we like to call it, “National File for an Extension Day.”

When it comes to doing taxes, how do you measure up to the rest of the population?

In a survey polling 1,500 Americans with the question:  “Considering what you GET from the federal government, do you think you pay MORE than your fair share of taxes, LESS than your fair share, or about the right amount?”

6% think they pay LESS than their share, 35% think they pay TOO MUCH, 33% say it’s about right, and 26% say the just don’t know.

What about the other stats? We’re glad you asked!

• 71% had their taxes filed by the beginning of this month.
• 6% admitted to waiting until the night before Tax Day to file.
• 7% claim they actually enjoy doing their taxes each year. (seriously, who are you people?)

Here are the TOP 5 ways we tend to use any money we may get back from our tax refund check:

1. Pay off debt
2. Add it to our checking/savings account
3. Treating ourselves to something nice
4. Spending the money on necessities
5. Paying for big item needs, like car repairs

Happy Taxing…
