But are you in the habit of borrowing money at 70% interest ? If so, I have some to lend you... Typical discounts on reimbursement is 15% for the first $300 and 5% for the rest. Let's assume your reimbursement is for $1000. They will give you 0.85*300 + 0.95*700 = $920. That's 8% over 6 weeks or 69% over a year. I'd file the return myself (there are 1-2-3 spreadsheets kicking around) and wait the 6 weeks if I were you.... No wonder they don't charge anything for filling out your return. Where else can you get that return on your investment ??? -- Janick Bergeron Bell-Northern Research, Ltd Ph.: (613) 763-5457 System Level P.O.
