This question has probably been asked this season, but how do I decline it for all my clients? Thanks

Win7 backup utility does like external hard drives that are over 2TB, you'll get an I/O error, best way to prevent this is to partition the hard drive. Learned the hard way after spending most of the day trying to backup my computer.

What software/utility do you recommend to back up a computer?

I think if it's a joint return the form 8965 is for both, looking at fake return I just created to duplicate your scenario, but under part III you will select the wife and use "C".

The picture says it all!!

FYI sometimes TP are required to amend prior years tax returns for immigration purposes, just saying.

I am just going go ahead and use NATP ACA checklist.

Do you somehow let your clients know you are a member of any professional tax organization? If yes, how? Thanks MAS

Does anyone have a very simple ACA questionnaire they can share with me? Thanks MAS

I would say no 1099, TP never paid it reality, but would advise the vendor to report it anyway, have them explain what happen. Something similar happened to client of mine, client tried to make things right with bank, but the bank never reversed or debit the amount, it was a very small amount. Now lets say vendor is on a cash basis and doesn't want to report it in 2014, then I would say hell YES.

Is the bank a small community bank from the stone age?

Is this a new computer?

"It was absurd how little evidence is required to claim dependents or the EIC or child tax credits. Underneath the dependents name is basically several bullets that ask you of this dependent lived with you for more than 6 months, etc. I almost overlooked it. So while we have to detail with the 8867 and all the ramifications of that, Turbo Tax s allowed to simply put up a few bullet points." +1 for Turbo Tax on this, if I am doing my own return which pretty much that is what Turbo Tax is design for (self-prepared) who best to know my kids.

You guys are show offs, this is my humble office.

Something to add, whipper snappers that benefited from DACA aka Dream Act DO NOT qualify for ACA, goes back to residency for immigration purposes not tax.

Maybe your tax client has a broad definition of what travel and entertainment is?

To be on the safe side, ACA forms are 8965 and 8962 only? I'm I missing another form possible form?

I believe I figured it out, under form 8965, Part III one would choose "C" = citizen living abroad or certain non citizens, does this sound correct? Anyone

If a TP is not eligible for health insurance because he is not considered a resident for immigration (work visa) purposes, how do you let the IRS know he is not eligible therefore is not subject to the penalty? MAS Trying to figure this out on ATX

You and your wife are in my prayers. Marco

No problem amigo!!

Charge by the form is what I need to determine, need help setting a price, that is why I asked.

How about for exemptions or hardship?

What did you decide your fees are going to be for ACA?
