God help me, I understood most of this.

I even caught the metaphors and innuendos!! Does that make me a naughty nerd?

But don't ask me to write the equations. I could have made a stab at those 35+ years ago (but they would probably have been wrong). These days I don't remember how even to start.

I use TaxHelpSoftware to pull transcripts (one year fee ~$300. It's a HUGE time-saver, as it logs in and downloads all the client transcripts faster than I can log into e-services myself. Then, it takes those raw transcripts and turns them into *organized* reports, sorted by year and then by date, with every detail. Estimated payments made, return filing, letters sent, responses - everything. Other parts of the report show audit flags, CSED and tolling events, graphs... it's great. WAY less than Canopy, too.

Rollovers as business start ups. I did a google search for that.

Try going to Control Panel, add/remove programs and see if it is there to remove.

I view change the way Abby does. A new computer with Win10 would be fine for me, I think. But, this laptop has a Share file that keeps certain files the same on my laptop and desktop. So, I'm nervous about one being on Win7 and one on Win10. It says it will complete the installation when I restart. If I shut down and then start, will that install? I have backed up files from the laptop. And, my most important files are in that Share folder which moves them automatically to my desktop. But, I never backed up the system on my laptop. It's just the one I take to a client's biz site. I do my work mostly from my desktop, and all my tax work from my desktop. Anything I can do now? To back up system? To remove Win10 files?

Closing a laptop and reopening it is not the same as a restart, so you should be fine. Win10 is still too problematic for me and I never change OS on a computer, only change with a new computer.

Edsel: The IRS uses the Acromyn ROBS to described folks removing money from their IRA, rolling it to a self-directed IRA, and then using those funds to purchase the Shares of a C-Corp that is owned by the same person. Can you do it? Sure. Can it blow up in your face? Absolutely. That may have happened to the OP's client. Rich

Dissolving the corporation? Is he shutting down the business, or converting it to a different type of operation? What created the NOL's? Did your client take a salary? Is the only who made any money on this ROBS the company that helped your client set it up? Rich
