Can't seem to transmit returns. The program freezes when I click on 'Transmit'. Anyone else having problems? Thanks! Eli

Thanks for the quick replies!! Eli

I'm getting ready to update and was just curious to see if anyone has phad any problems with the latest updates. I haven't updated for about 3-4 days I think. Thanks! Eli

Not sure, but I sent in 20 a few days back. Eli

lbb, if that's the case then you might have to wait just as long as you would hold with ATX support. Eli

Do I have to pay tax on workers compensation? You don't pay tax on workers compensation received by you or your survivors for job related sickness or injuries paid under a workers compensation act or workers compensation statute in the nature of a workers compensation act. The tax exemption on your tax return does not apply to retirement plan benefits you receive based on age, length of service, or prior contributions to the plan, even though you retired because of an occupational sickness or injury. If your employer continues to pay your regular salary or wages and requires you to turn over your workers compensation benefits you are taxed on your tax return on the overage that was paid to you by your employer. The part of your workers compensation that reduces your social security benefits or equivalent railroad retirement benefits is considered social security benefits and may be taxable on your tax return under rules for those types of income. Accordingly, your workers compensation may be indirectly subject to tax on your tax return. http://www.gosmallbiz.com/lawinfo/question...=20845&se=1 Hope this helps! Eli

What's up with that, Mel? I thought everybody wanted to be in Tx!! :)

I remember reading about it. I read a biography on Bart Starr when I was in middle school (I think). I was only 2 years old when the game was played. The Cowboys weren't my favorite team yet, but they have been since I was 10-11 :-) Eli

Temps were in the 40's yesterday with lots of drizzle. Today temps are still in the 40-50 degree range, but the sun is trying to peek out from the clouds. Seeing everyone bundled up, you'd think we were in Maine or Wisconsin Eli

Come on Marilyn, cough up some of those millions you got stashed away :-) Eli

I did it 2-3 times last year and it worked fine. Like Kodex mentioned, it does seem to take a little bit longer for acks, but it works. Buena Suerte!! Eli

Pedro, on the W-2 form you should use the SSN they are using and on the front page of the 1040 use the ITIN they have. Eli

John, I never thought about it that way. Thanks for the heads up. As always I appreciate the input. Eli

Slappy, Thanks for your always complete info. I think this pretty much is the case with this gentleman. I don't know a whole lot about him, he just asked if I could do the 1099's for him. I recommended to him that he get the EIN so he wouldn't put his SSN out any more than he needed to. I think this is what he will do. Thanks again!! Eli

I tried to convince him, but he's an ATTORNEY :-). At least he's considering the EIN. I just wanted to make sure I had him on the right track. Thanks for the input! Eli

Congratulations, Danielle!! Hope you & your baby are bundled up :-) Eli

Attorney is a sole proprietor. Pays contract labor for adminstrative & legal assistants. Does not plan to incorporate anytime soon. Would he need an EIN or is it ok just to continue using his SSN on 1099 Misc's? Thanks!! Eli

Should be TaxWise Eli

That is correct. The instructions say that if you were a 'Full-Time' student. http://www.irs.gov/pub/irs-pdf/f8880.pdf Eli

I will definitely do that. Eli

Tere? She's doing really good. She now has an insurance business (Farmers) along with her income tax practice. I mentioned this site to her, but haven't seen her in here yet. She's still using ATX as well. I finally got my 1st RAL approved. The 1st 4 were lost in limbo. They will be getting the money on the 25th. Eli

I kind of thought I had seen on one of your posts you were from California, but wasn't sure. How's the season starting up for you? It's still a little slow here, but picking up. The weather is a little chilly & wet this morning. Looking forward to a good day. Take care! Eli

Luis??
