Tried to install Turbo tax on work computer, but apparently IT has added software to block us from doing such.

I never....ever....have all the docs I need until at least the very end of Jan, early Feb, to do my taxes.
Even if I wanted to I'm still waiting for forms and reports to come in. How do you do it?

Which I usually receive mid March. I know that doc is reporting a loss so I want to get everything else in to get an idea if I can get the kids new bikes off layaway.

My mortgage peeps is kinda messin' me up for the time being

tho technically, it's my fault.
Despite closing attorney repeating over and over again to send in the tax exemption for primary residence forms....i, uh....didn't. That is, until the county sent a tax 'bill' (really, just a heads up what was expected from escrow acct) for $XXXX.xx.
That amount was a good 3x what it should've been.
So, I go to county tax office. I asked the lovely lady there 'how many of these have come in today', she says "ALL of them". She was actually in a pretty good mood, considering she'd been correcting lazy-ass peoples' procrastination all day....she says the change should be updated onlinein a week. It was the easiest and quickest thing I've ever done in that tax office.
So, I call bank to give them a heads up, and they say "Hey, cool...no prob, bruh. Our system isn't sending anything out for another few weeks, and it'll check with the county website before it does, so as long as it's updated by then, blah blah blah"
In a week or so, as expected, the county website is updated to reflect changed (much much less) amount.
a week later, I see some weirdness on mint.com, and quickly trace it back to mortgage peeps sending out the original 3x amount. yay.
What this has done now, is both 1) created a rather significant deficit in my escrow account (which could really throw off the forthcoming escrow analysis), and 2) screwed up my tax doc's for the time being
Mortgage peeps got another call from me, saying "ya dint do what ya said ya was gonna do". They apologized, put a hold on any forthcoming escrow analyses until this is resolved (which is good), but can't do anything until they find out if/when g'ville county will either refund them or me the difference (which hasn't happened yet)
So NOW, do I file with whatever the current tax 'payment' is recorded on the docs i've been provided with, knowing it's temporary and wrong? Or input the amount that it'll eventually end up being?

have the W2s ready before the end of the month and most years I didn't have much else to wait on. I am still waiting on my W2 for 2018, but should be able to get my taxes done quickly after that.

I am absolutely mortified at the idea of sitting down with a CPA this year. With all of the inheritance stuff and multiple and I mean multiple institutions I have been dealing with the past year. This is going to get messy and potentially expensive.
This has nothing to do with your question. After reading your email I just had a super double dose of anxiety that I needed to release.

Boat show pricing is in effect NOW, but you have no clue if you're going to be getting the 35 foot boat or the 29.

That the credit card summary you get at the end of the year is good enough. We have one card that we use just for groceries and gas that gives you a detailed spending summary that I’m counting on being enough.
Used a different card when we traveled out of state to try and keep it simple.

I was going to rely on the credit card 'trick'....guess I'll just have to pay attention and hope the transaction info has some location info to it
