When do you usually file your taxes? Do you get them done ASAP or procrastinate for a while?

I usually spend a Sunday afternoon on them, and I always think I'll get it done in February but sometimes it happens in early April. It's really not a difficult job, but it's just one of those things that's easy to put off.

I get them done as soon as docs are available. Unfortunately, some banks don't provide docs til mid February at earliest

After all the paperwork arrives. Usually, I don't get all the "correct" paperwork until about mid-March.

I usually file my taxes as soon as I get the forms. There’s no reason to wait any longer, unless you really enjoy waiting extra long to get any potential refund for some reason. I end up taking an evening to file sometime in late February or early March, depending on when exactly different places finally get me the documents that I need.

I try to do them in February

Currently 25 y/o making 70k/year in Boston. I grew up pretty poor and I have minimal financial education. A lot of my salary now goes towards helping my parents get out of debt. My parents are no longer able to live on their own, so considering selling my grandmas house where they live (maybe 550k), paying off their mortgage (100k) and buying a duplex (between them they make about 55k/year). Is buying a two family home a good investment ? How much can I afford to spend on a new house?

Hi everybody! 😊
I've been working as a Junior Analog Design Engineer for a year and half.
I received a proposal for a Senior Analog Designer role from Bosch in the same city where I am currently working.
Should I wait and build up a few more years of experience before accepting a Senior role or should I jump in and work to fill the gap?
Next year, there will be an important deadline for the project I'm working on and my resignation could be critical for the team, how would you deal with it?
