5. To answer your question directly: Yes, a shutdown will keep you from getting your refund check.

6. If you are getting a refund, why wait until the last minute to file?

Some of us need money like that and file as soon as we can.

7. We have to wait until we get all our statements in and they often arrive in late February!

We have an accountant to help us. We're retired and have $ in various vehicles to give us income. It's not a lot. We had to wait until early March to file as a result. I knew we'd be looking at a 3 week wait at least. I figured it would come next week...just hoping it's in today's mail...
