Always. I am not good enough with money to keep it all and put some away each month to pay the irs. So instead of doing that, which is the wiser thing to do, I make sure I have enough taken out so that I always get a refund :)

I always do but wish I can say the same for my state of MA, always finding new ways to take, take, take!

Neither. I'm on Social Security and no longer have to even file.

I forget. I think we paid a little bit more this year than was withheld. We filed months ago, though.

I just feel like arising at the same time helps me stay on schedule and feel like I am seizing the day. Also, I can NEVER sleep in when I try anyway.

I have tried to get up later but cannot stay up in the evening. I got up at the same time for many years while working

Approximately, but as retirees we're delightfully flexible most all the time.

If I go to bed later, I will wake up later.

It is said that you should always wake up at the same time. Never has worked for me.
