  1. TP was not covered for Dec 2015 to Feb 2016, TP does not qualify for short coverage gap, however the penalty for not having insurance for one month in 2015 is the same amount as not having insurance for the whole year? Is this possible?

    Zero 1098T

    TP daughter 2014 reflected spring 2015 tuition, however she did not enroll for the fall 2015/spring 2016 semester, so the school issued her a zero 1098T. My question is, she still had to make out of pocket payments for the spring 2015 semester totaling $7K and $500 for books, would it be safe to enter payments received Box 1 of the 1040 EdExp input sheet? Thanks
  3. I use a dedicated 3TB (paid $99 at costco) only for backups using Acronis True Image. However it's schedule to backup once a week, does anyone here backup everyday?
  4. Yup, same thing happen here, had to call tech support and felt like a dummy afterwards.

    ACA your thoughts

    I posted the following question in another group and want to see what you think about it? ACA: If a TP makes no attempt to get health insurance and you tell them they owe a penalty, they get upset and walk out. Then they go to the next preparer and say, I didn't get health insurance because I could not afford it, so I should be exempt from having health insurance. Is it really that easy to get away without having health insurance? FYI: Form 8965, Part III you can elect "A" Unffordable Coverage
  6. Try re-downloading the most recent version and see if that works, also what operating system were on you on before? WIN 7 has been around since late 2009 and it's almost out the door and being replaced with WIN 10. I also recommend Scansnap and the Fujitsu s1500, best invention since whipped cheese in a can.
  7. How much did you pay for NAPS2 software?
  8. At least they didn't fax 30+ pages backwards which results in 30 blank pages
  9. Can someone double check these figures and see if AMT is being calculated on your software: MFJ, Husband $250K, 62K fed w/h, 12K state w/h Wife $250K, 59K fed w/h, 12K state w/h I notice the line 3 (taxes from Sch A) is not automatically flowing. TP has been making the same amount of money for the past few years and always gets hit with ATM. Thanks MAS
  10. How can I tell a client nicely/professional manner I would not be interested in working on his returns this year, what would you say? MAS
  11. 9 out of 10 I do, the 10th usually have books that can be used to clean something "insert word"
  12. Congrats to all!!
  13. Texting: One reason not to give your clients your number, I had a number of clients save my number after returning their call while working out of the office, I attend their call just once and as soon as it ends, boom I block their number. Then they have the nerve to call my office number and say I've been trying to call you but your phone is not working, I am like hello I am talking to you!!
  14. I have a client that was approached by a long time costumer about opening another restaurant, so the agreement is that it will be a 50/50 ownership, split all cost to startup the business etc... My client will train employees and will be on call if a cook doesn't show up, but here is my question. Client will not be an employee, he would like to earn a monthly commission on the sales for the use of his business name (established business) and his family recipes, could this be possible if he is an owner? Thanks MAS
  15. How can I prevent from "Attachment for State" not to print for all (global setting) my returns? Thanks MAS
  16. Thank you
  17. Can someone who recently set up the protection plus to NO on all returns, share how you did it. Thanks MAS
  18. It's probably Ruff out there.
  19. I vote for this:
  20. I have a colleague that might be interested, I will send you a PM.
  21. I have notice after I installed ATX2015 or the payroll 2015 my computer is sporadically crashes and then restarts, anyone else having this problem?
  22. Thanks that worked!!!
  23. How do I do the following: 1. Preparers/ERO info to flow into 2015? 2. Prior year W-2 information (pull down list currently blank)? Thanks MAS
  24. Thanks for the add.
  25. Need some help, where do I check off to make sure the fee per form schedule generates automatically (like global settings). I created dummy return and the fee per form is not broken down, I just get the total bill, but I would like to itemize the bill per client. Thanks MAS
