SCL

my understanding...the extension efile was created but never transmitted (to be rejected)...so, no harm, no foul.

I REALLY look forward to your vegas (lucky 13!) review. I bet you have been to atlantic city many times. so vegas should be no big deal. except, as they say... "what happens in vegas, stays in vegas", unless you choose to share with us. I hope so. danger, will robinson!!! watch out for a Hangover (movie) scenario. is alan/zach galifianakis involved in your trip?

interesting...since it was created but not transmitted, I believe there is currently no problem for you. jmcq's suggestion could be an out. or? bring the 4868 back into the tax return and change/adjust it. I think? that will uncreate the efile in return manager.

happy 7 atx comm, eric happy 4/11 and best wishes, kc. (an unknown factoid until now)...same bday...go figure. you will always be 6 years older than me .

i have no problem with tax and program issues on this forum. I welcome it and want more of it. i do have a problem with hysterical demagogues who would suppress free speech. i do have a problem with the forum becoming (to a greater or lesser degree/you make the call) a social media/political forum whose rules of engagement are substantially influenced and determined by a right wing clique...a clique who want to live on a one way street of opinion defined by their own point of view. if a substantial portion of this forum is to be devoted to social/political questions, then recognize it. i like social/political discussion. but, there needs to an understanding that a social/political blog is a two way street of opinion/argument.

"And BTW, I couldn't care less what your opinion is. This is not about politics, this is about human rights and exposing this as the child abuse it is." and I couldn't care less what your opinion about my opinion is. you have posted dozens+++ of times a thread/response on chat that was political. how many times to you get to violate chat terms before you are censored?

thanks for reminding me about at least half time for parents and the non refundable aoc 2500 tax credit. i hope i have this right...without nailing it down. I have had several, independent students (under age 24) who qualified for the full time (one session/12 hours), 2500 aoc tax credit...?1500 tax credit and 1000 refundable credit.

I understand how the 1st amendment/free speech works...you don't. click or don't click. respond or don't respond. free speech. no where does it say, like you are suggesting: don't click. don't respond. no free speech. if that were the case... and it is why I find the inconsistent, hypocritical, simple minded political posturing of right wing demagogues so amusing... DON'T CLICK ON OR RESPOND TO ANY OF MY POSTS! BAZZINGA!!

put away the guilt and accept your capitalistic ability/niche/good fortune...whatever it is. I think/hope I speak for all of us who play here in your sandbox... over the tax years, I have found tax/program advice several/many times each year that save me time and money. thank you to all the type A personalities (in spite of your political persuasion) who tell me/us what to do. that is why I am here.

nice spin, but I'm not buying. especially your forced rationalization about folks not having time for the thread(s) on politics. yes, it's on politics (on more than one thread, already)...they even had apropos responses that I found somewhat interesting. unlike this thread that languished until I made my "petty" complaint about no politics on chat. as I said before, marking it NT does not make it non political. a distinction you, jack, and others frequently choose ignore.

General Chat Discuss taxes, software, anything you want besides politics. is this a political post? just wondering? because it is labeled NT does not make it non political.

!!!!

hey joe... I'm on my way...way down south to mexico. I could even be a bit more than over...+$50 inc &/or $14 tax, LOL!!!! .

this post is not worth your effort on the chat board. please, find another board to waste my tax/program time.

you make the call... the coast of California or Alaska? heaven or very near hell?

the question is about filing requirement and what is "gross income"...in this case, I don't think there is a filing requirement... "gross proceeds" of any stock sale is another question. my mo is to file (one) consistent return (for the record) that shows no return was required. then, when I don't file next year, the base line has been established.

jack...I could be wrong, again, but I have a feeling you are creating efiles out of order. as orson wells said in 1979 for gallo: "no wine before its time." (edit) as much as you know about the program you no doubt are doing it right.

"the rest of the story" (paul harvey). I guess she made $5200 on paper (after fees). the average market was up 30% last year. what is her stock portfolio balance...is $5200 a 30% gain. maybe her broker earned his churning fees. no doubt, the broker should not be trading/churning an elderly woman's stock account.

it's good to know. I also "heart" jainen...you old dog. Juliet, act II, scene 2: What's in a name? that which we call a rose By any other name would smell as sweet;

it is the recommended mo for atx. you must have selected this in preferences. transmit/efile the fed & hold the state until the fed is accepted. then the state is automatically created to transmit.

first thing is to find out a cost basis...somehow from somewhere. then jump through the sch d/fm 8849 hoops.

absolutely. I do it on the detail tab where I can enter/edit all at once.

the "company store" board has pursued this problem. bottom line, some efiles have gone through and others have been rejected/"locked". there probably is a reason for why or why not, but...? suggestions if locked... surviving spouse call soc sec to see why locked...no way! paper file...please! I have one...with a bail out solution for me. they were not required to file (no fed/state withholding/refunds). I was only filing to establish big nursing home med expenses. now, so far, I just won't file.

thank you for your response. despite our political differences, I "heart" you and always have. you are a wise tax law/program guru. today, after the weekend, I did just that and called tech support. after 3 hours of 1st and 2nd level troubleshooting (and a waste of time), andre gave up, deleted my program, and reinstalled. I seem to be back on track.

it just started today for me...the program won't open at all. this message seems to be different than other error messages people are talking about. "the program has encountered an unexpected error and needs to close" I noticed on the start menu...all programs list...that I now have 2 separate main cch folders containing the 2013 program. the tree breakout on both folders show slight differences.
