Oh, I hear you. At the very least understand when your payroll deducts it is for future tax years. Do yourself the favor and at the very least WITHOLD your own money.
They have their hand in your pocket, your wallet, your life in advance.
Do it. And then when its time to file, YOU FILE FOR THE EXTENSION.
That delays your filing for five to six months.
If you want to play, don't file at all.
They will come to 'suggest' a number of what you owe.
The best case scenario if your in the mindset that you are is that you make the phone call and agree to the number and cut the check.
You do two things here. You AVOID the literal affidavit of the actual tax return. Of which , if they are going to fuck you, they are going to fuck you on a technicallity, an error on your tax filing ( an affidavit ) admissable in the court of law.
So good you brought it up and some can learn from this lesson.
