Any money you get back in a refund is an interest free loan you give the government. It's money that could have been sitting in your high yield money market making 4% interest.
Finally someone else sees the light...you should always shoot for 0 money back...

but it is nice to get a check too

Looks like I'll be getting just under $3k back. Most of it will go to school loans, car insurance, bank. My car might directly get some to fix a few dents up, depending on cost.

Ive been claiming married filing seperatly all year. However when I filed I did so married filing joint with 2 dependents. I changed that **** though, I would much rather just have the higher paycheck all year then get $7k at the end. Ill be happy with $2k back a year from now on. Plus Illinois military doesnt pay state taxes!!
