I did this yesterday and it would not install. Spent 40 minutes or so with tech support. He attempted to do it for me and asked some of his peers. "It is on a domain and we do not support domains". We have been on a ever since we first got a website. I think 2002 or 2003. I am not enthused.

I have two of those clients who, for whatever reason, listen to us and save 30 cents on every dollar of self employment income. $25,000 tax bill, "Okay can we make bigger estimates this year " few and far between but there are a few. Woman in tears the other day. HER income W-2..$4.1 million need $166,000 over withholding, "Can I make payments". Bite my tongue.

RE: the letters regarding EIP and Child tax credit. The IRS did send them to both parties. I have them in hand from one of my clients now. They have 10 children so you can figure they say on top of this stuff.

dsl reports. more than 30 years of reports from users

Original post says that client is active duty GUARD. Probably paid by the state as Guard. Unless, forwarded to federal activation. Then the w-2 would be from DFAS and taxed in state of residence, At least that is the experience in Arizona. Of course, in Arizona active duty would not be subject to state tax at all.

I do not know how they did it but, When we first started e-file we used a 3rd party transmitter. $10. ATX did not do it for us. We sent it to 3rd party. I do not know what they did but it worked, just took a while. We did not sign as ERO.

ATX never provides the 1040-ES until late march or so. As to my recollection. But then again my memory is like memorex. OLD.

That is what I thought i was saying, the operator (contractor) determines his/her hours. Not the corp. structure.

I realize that this is the State of the Big NO. But, under current definitions the Uber/Lyft ride share folks could not be employees. They determine their hours, they provide their tools (cell phone and car) , and most of them have other jobs or businesses that are different from the part-time ride share business.

I Will definitely use that on next "shopper". I really do not want anymore clients.

As another Looong Time AAA member, I have used the tow service as well as lockout, flat tire, dead battery etc.. The no rider policy must be something with "social distancing" or something. I have never had an issue with riding with vehicle, Had one occasion where the operator asked me to leave my dog in the towed vehicle as he was terrified of dogs. I would definitely inquire at AAA corporate. I have noticed a few changes in the last couple of years since they moved call center to Northern California. Limit to 4 service calls a year was first. The call operator wanted a credit card to provide service. when I got a little agitated she gave me to supervisor and dispatched tow truck without a charge. I do have several "classic vehicles" that are subject to needing help home.

Thank You, I knew it would be relative simple. Just flailing. They did send him each years balances and I computed from that. Thank you again.

Title misleading, what is new for me is a gentleman (Longtime client) retired several years ago. Turned 70 in 2013/ We reminded him of RMD obligations . He had multiple tax deferred accounts and dutifully arranged for automatic distributions from his SEP. He discovered recently that he overlooked an IRA that had been sitting out there vegetating. Panics over penalties. I have done several where we ask for forgiveness on first year. But I have no idea of how to report 7 years of missed RMDs . Do I just lump them on 5329 ? I really do not want to do that. I really do not want to amend any returns. Just looking for the easy and cheap way out of this mess. Assume with all the experience on this forum somebody might have already pursued this. Also, T. Rowe Price refused to do the calculations for the client. Would not have helped but I would have thought that in 7 years they would have noticed.
