Status of Tax Refund and average return amount?

The average federal tax refund this year will be $2,803.  That's some hot cash right there.  How are YOU gonna blow it?  Capital One just released the results of a survey, so you can see how other Americans are going to spend their refunds.

--22% will use it to pay down debt . . . 16% will put it in the bank . . . and 4% will invest it.  But at least 35% plan to blow ALL of it.  And here's how . . .

--30% will use the money on everyday expenses.  Do those guys know how to party or what?!?

--23% will spend it on a vacation.

--16% will spend it on clothes, shoes, or accessories.

--15% will buy an iPad, TV, phone, or some other electronics.

--The rest will use it toward other major purchases.

Now,  if you want to check on status of your return go to "where's-my-refund" website.  They update the information once a day so going back and checking several times a day just jams the system.  Evenings and Weekends are best....On smart phones I'm hearing of an APP called IRS-2-GO but this is also recieving overwhelming use right now.   mark@warm1069.com
