mollycoddler : It was n’t as scary as I thought .
Hello, my name is Selby, and I’ve never done my own taxes (oops!). Honestly — my Mom’s always done them for me!
Thankfully, my pals at H&R Block invited me to come in for an appointment so I could get some help with the financial mess that are my tax documents. 👇
Dealing with money when you’re a broke student also working part-time is scary stuff! Plus, it turns out being a student means there’s alotmore forms and files to consider when tax season comes around. RRSP? T2202? TFSA? T4? What????
I grabbed my T4 from my workplace, my T2202 from my school, and a few other things too. Once I got my files in (better) order, it was time to get some in-person help.
And good news…
My Tax Expert Lamar was the absolute best. He’s definitely getting a Christmas card this year.
With his help, I claimed my rent, my tuition, and even my charitable donations. Yes, that’s right, I give back to the people!
Lamar also helped me update details on my CRA account. I finally set up direct deposit too! No more picking up cheques from my mom’s house.
While I could havefiled onlineor evenjust dropped off my red folder, meeting in person with an expert helped answer SO many questions.
And poof — in a flash, my taxes were done, and I’m even getting a refund! I honestly think the H stands for Helpful and the R stands for Really nice. Helpful & Really nice Block.
The whole process only took about 45 minutes, which was perfect because I had an assignment for class due that day I had to finish (…and start).
An appointment with an H&R Block Tax Expert made it really simple for a student like me to get my taxes filed and my return back quickly. Now, I get to spend it all on textbooks and bus fare… and maybe a cheeky pint or two at the campus pub. I am a college student, after all.
Cheers! If you wanna follow in my footsteps, you can book an appointment with anH&R Block Tax Expert here too!
