Hey, BooBoo, let's go find a pic-a-nic basket!

Like everyone else I have been boning up (laughs) on the ACA. I've got a handle on it more or less. Most of my folks are unaffected BUT it finally occurred to me that there are not a few out there who file their own returns who are not going to have a clue as to what to do. Looks like it will be an interesting season. Of course, it's reassuring to know we have this handy forum available.

Married men live longer than single men. But married men are a lot more willing to die. Johnny Carson

The room was full of pregnant women with their husbands. The instructor said, "Ladies, remember that exercise is good for you. Walking is especially beneficial. It strengthens the pelvic muscles and will make delivery that much easier. Just pace yourself, make plenty of stops and try to stay on a soft surface like grass or a path." "Gentlemen, remember -- you're in this together. It wouldn't hurt you to go walking with her. In fact, that shared experience would be good for you both." The room suddenly became very quiet as the men absorbed this information. After a few moments a man, name unknown, at the back of the room, slowly raised his hand. "Yes?" said the Instructor. "I was just wondering if it would be all right, if she carries a golf bag while we walk?"

I started learning and taking seminars 2 tax seasons ago. There was a ton of information available at the IRS forums. I too, have a good grasp on how, when and what to do. It surprises me how many have waited till 3 months before tax season to start investigating. I do believe that the necessary information you will need will be difficult to obtain, learn and get a handle on in the short time remaining. Just my observed and experienced opinion.

Thanks for sharing your opinions! Definitely opened my eyes to some things that I failed to consider.

Positive thinking. No change, just more rhetoric. Unless all incumbents returned to congress then they might start something.. But gridlock was designed into system. Hope that they do not do anything to add to the infringement or destruction of constitution. Leaving politics now. sorry about Jack leading me off topic.

It is a scientific and genetic fact that if your parents did not have any kids, neither will you.

Nobody goes there anymore. It's too crowded. Yogi Berra

I would check the NAEA and NATP webinars and your local chapters for live education. If in the northeast, the NY/CT-ATP has a November dinner meeting on the topic. Check with your software also. I'm leaving at dawn for CCH's User Conference, and ACA will be covered in their Update course. I'd guess the CCH courses will find their way into webinars soon. Don't stress until after the elections, as Congress may mess around with it some more before it's final anyway!
