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.
