I sent my taxes in on the afternoon the 15th. How long should I expect it to take for them to deposit my checks -- i.e., when should I worry they didn't get it? (added: I owed them money... I'm not looking ofr my refund, I want to make sure they got my payment).

If I were going to pull a directing resume out of my ass (I've actually been an AD on a couple of stage things), can anyone point me to a good format, or a tip on how to do one with little-no credits... it's nothing pressing, this is just something I want to try my hand at and I see an opportunity. (if I had enough hair, I'd hide behind it, but let's get real).

You doing direct deposit?

I telefiled state and it took four days. Federal I did by mail, direct deposit, and it took about three weeks. You can go to the irs.gov website and click "Where's My Return?" to track it! That will tell you if they even got it.

No no -- I owed them money... wrote a check that I sent with it -- want to make sure they get it... because I have tax woes and if they didn't it would be an issue.

Oooh, sorry. I was living in the candyass fantasyland of the single-W-2-workers.

Lol.... a fantasy land I should be a part of, but alas, am not.

Last time I owed the check went through in about two weeks. The feds like their money deposited and collecting interest quickly.

Ah... okay... cool.... so the fact that at most they've had it for two days is nothing for me to be concerned about. I figured they'd be even faster about it.

Nope. In fact, I seem to recall them taking almost a month with my check.

I think it took about ten days for the check to go through, when I sent money in this year.

Brilliant, and you didn't even do it at the last minute.

Because I fear the IRS! I was expecting money back, which is why I did them early, but alas. Foiled.

At least you weren't like this guy I know who waited until 12:25 here but used a west coast website so he got in under the deadline. Doing that would give me a heart attack.

Put down NIDA stuff for sure that you directed, you can put down extensive "workshop" experience. It's also good to put down all your stage managing experience, tech experience, and you can put down some choice acting roles (but no more than a few, along with "selected credits" etc) to show that you've been through the whole mill. Mostly the layouts I've seen are fairly similar to acting resumes. But it depends on the project . . some things will want to see whole show proposals before they'll hire you, some will just need an interview. They should specify though how much material they need.

It's just a resume they want, and that pretty much conforms to my instincts re: stage managing and NIDA. It's for a festival of short plays by/about women... a bit wanky in my book, but short is what I can handle right now and seems a reasonably place to poke around, I am female, and the festival has existed long enough that it shouldn't be a total cluster fuck.

Actually a festival, no matter how wanky, is I think the best way you could start in on doing this. And while usually being surrounded by all women is kinda toxic, it might be nice to have the literal dicksizing far from you when you're figuring out how to do the thing.

Do they have a project for you already, or would they like assign you something?

They'd assign something, and yes, the last thing I'd need is to have some fucking boy stage manager up in my shit while trying to navigate this.
