I've done an estimate on my tax return and I should get a decent amount back because I only worked for 7 months. Then I'll also get some FTB too as I way way way over estimated my income because I didnt know how long I'd be working for. I dont know how much DH will be geting back, but we'll probably spend his on bills. I hate how all the big bills come due at the same time
We're about to do some minor renovations in our house and we're spending my tax return on that. We have a terrible floor at the moment - parquetry floorboards with carpet over the top of them, but all the floorboards have come unstuck from the subfloor so they are loose under the carpet and you can feel them move under your feet when you walk on them, so the floor is really uneven (the previous owners obviously did a cheap job on the floor when they put the carpet down!). We're getting it fixed with brand new floorboards in 3 weeks.
