Thats funny, the 2k electric, no wrong tax, sorry if I confused you. I just lump it all the same and write the checks.

Both of us make a combined under 100 K. Is this the correct amount? I though the home rebate should be around $1000-$1500 for those making under 100K.

Any insight is appreciated.

I was pleasantly surprised to receive my rebate this morning. It too was a direct deposit .........to my WAMU account.

Estimated quarterly taxes? Do you own your own business?

Or do you have your mortgage set up so you pay your own property taxes? If you do, that's not what estimated quarterly taxes are by "definition" in the world of accounting/business.

I see no need for my mortgage company to keep my money in escrow and pay my property taxes for me (why should the mortgage company benefit from interest on my money?). I do it myself and pay my quarterly tax bills due my township...every 1/4 of the year.
