Thanks for your response, PapaJoe.

Taxbilly, I AM WELL AWARE OF THE INSTRUCTIONS. The IRS instructions state that

they will acknowledge receipt of Form 1023 within 21 days of the mailing date, by letter.

Since they haven't responded within the 21 days, I thought I would ask on this board.

I prepared this application for my client, and the client mailed it to the IRS

on 12/26/08. No response yet. Anybody have an idea how long it takes the IRS

to either issue the determination letter or request additional info from the client?

The last Form 1023 I prepared was about 5 years ago.

Schedule EIC is not required for an EIC eligible individual with no children.

The "NO" automatically is placed on the appropriate line when the person is

eligible for the EIC, but has no children.

The program has always done that.

Ok Booger, Why should you be getting Ohio ACKS when nobody else is?

Is it because you know something (or someone) that we don't?

Seriously, has anyone else gotten any Ohio IT 1040 Acks so far?

Ray, can't explain it, but I got'em.

"Hmm, the 540 refers to page 14 of the instructions. Page 14 of the instructions says to complete the worksheet on page 58. The instructions only go to page 20. Last year the instructions went to page 60. Looks like CA is missing some form instructions there..."

Here is the link to the whole 68 pages.

Your figures are right, so there must be a glitch in transmitting or receiving, probably the latter, since our state is in such a mess. But that's OK, Arnie is going to put sales tax on our pets, when we take them to the vet. That and a higher gas tax will fix everything.

I heard that your state is going to secede from the Union and become "The Peoples Republic of California".

Comrade Booger

jklcpa, I would go ahead and include it even if its not required. That way,

you can keep a record of the assets that you mentioned. Just because the

4562 isn't required, doesn't mean you CAN'T include it.

Sent 2 sets of Federal and Ohio returns on Sunday....got the Ohio ACKS this AM.

Form 4562 can now be e-filed.

See the post right below yours.

Ray, just checked the MyATX site.....it's not even listed.

Guess we'll just have to wait.

GOOD ONE, JohnH!!!

Laughing Booger

Lloyd, the form must not be approved yet....we'll just have to wait.

Thank you for responding.

Thanks for your responses. Has anybody been able to create an e-file with

BOTH forms 8829 and 4562 yet? I know that I have the most recent version

of both forms.

Let's assume that CA doesn't issue the tax refunds until late 2009. What I would advise employed

people to do now would be to change their CA withholding certificates and have the MINIMUM amount

withheld (whatever the minimum is).

If CA is in financial trouble NOW, wait till they see the tax remittances go way down throughout

the year.

Just curious.....does the "common man" in CA have any recourse against the State's holding his/her money?

The way things are, I can see other states doing this.

Wait until the Feds start doing it.

and got a message that Forms 4562 and 8829 were not approved yet

for e-filing. I checked on the MyATX site, but I couldn't find anything that

says when the above forms would be approved for e-filing.

Any suggestions??

Tried to create an e-file this AM. The program is telling me that Forms 4562 and 8829 have not

been approved for e-filing yet. Tried to find out info regarding this by logging on to MyATX, but

no help.

Where can we find out when these forms will be approved for e-filing??

Thanks for your responses.

Thanks, Evan. Now, forget about the S Corp. If a C Corp has only one class of stock o/standing,

and has 3 shareholders. In this scenario, can the Corp pay dividends to only one shareholder?

I seem to recall that if one stockholder (in the above scenario) receives a dividend, then all shareholders

have to, based upon their shares held.

My mind is not working this AM. If S Corp has 3 shareholders, can Corp pay dividends to only

1 and not the other 2?.

I hope that this joke isn't too racy. If it is, I apologize.

I ended up with an older woman at a club last night. She looked

pretty good for a 60-year old. In fact, she wasn't too bad at all,

and I found myself thinking that she probably had a really hot

daughter. We drank a bit more and we had a bit of a snuggle, then

she asked if I ever had a "Sportsman's Double?".

What's that? I asked.

It's a mother and daughter threesome, she said.

Oh. I said as my mind began to embrace the idea.

No, I haven't. And I wondered what this daughter of hers

might look like. We drank a bit more, then she said with a wink

that tonight was "my lucky night". So I went back to her place,

we walked in. She put on the hall light and shouted upstairs...

MOM, YOU STILL AWAKE?

Happy Birthday, Zeke!!
