  1. Taxable SS at 25K/32K have been that way my entire career. And I've been at this since '88. And just to stay "on topic", I have a kid living off of an inheritance who has this FTC problem for a couple of years. Reporting the c/o is a pain, and will (probably) never benefit him.
  2. We all thought it, Abby just said it out loud!
  3. FWIW, Local UPS Store does (did) shredding, cheaper and with a better guarantee, than the local "truck" service. (Posted this yesterday, but must've saved to draft or something.)
  4. I keep seeing "Apportionment" 2023, as in Form IT 2023: "Income Allocation and Apportionment Nonresident Credit". Funny how the brian works.
  5. I always had to laugh when they remembered after being told - "Wrong information may slow your refund by as much as 6 months".
  6. The best one I have seen is 30, 35, 45. 110% of annual billing, but the best year encourages you to help the buyer with retention. The vast majority I've seen though, is 100% annual billing over a 3 year spread. Enjoy! (Seriously considering it myself.)
  7. Yeah! I looked at both websites yesterday and saw nothing.
  8. I have a client who called Friday to set up an appointment, 19K unemployment, after an explanation, he decided to wait. But he also hasn't received his 2nd stim. check. My post was merely to show the poor treatment of NECPA's client received. I used to live in the "world" of unemployment, (construction), and they wouldn't even talk to you if you had a part-time job!
  9. This is pathetic! I saw a post somewhere of a wife who got a part-time job just as the (hold my tongue) pandemic hit. She made a couple thousand dollars, then collected close to 20K unemployment.
  10. I provide a SASE with an identifying code only I know above the return address. I use Catherine's method, but also tape the envelope (w/postmark) to the back of the form. Again, I use Catherine's method, but also make the client initial the old date with the current date. Overkill maybe, but I'll be damned if they'll (IRS) penalize me after NOT paying me to do most of their work!
  11. And at the time, there were discussions that some federal agencies started doing this by default.
  12. So is the nephew of this proud uncle! Back home, sort'a, in Columbus.
  13. Actually it was here in a thread titled "EIN for Estate" Max posted: Did you try during 7 AM and 10 PM EST?
  14. FWIW There was a post on, (I think), the Drake forum that said this can only be done during certain hours - and the earlier the better. (7 or 8 am EST IIRC) Also, prayers, and hoping your son is still flying high!
  15. Ditto! There is a link on Scr 1 if you haven't found it. Why not a "got 'em both" check box?
  16. Oops, brain fart! I meant 4 & 6, i.e. proper amount of tax withheld.
  17. I know of a married couple whose "checks" were sent separately. Husband received 1200 & wife received 600. They filed joint last year.
  18. 1) Was the 8700 spent on the daughters support? 2a) No SE 2b) I would, but I have seen others who would list it on Line 21 (or whatever it's called now.) 3) I deal with "tipped" employees very seldom, but IIRC, the employer should've taken care of this. Are boxes 3 & 5 correct?
  19. Drake suffers from this also.
  20. I have seen 1 out 12 so far. I haven't got mine, and my check is a month old!
  21. Went there to watch Sammy Sosa try and break the home run record back when, (he struck out 4 times). That food stand had about a hundred lines and there were 20 to 30 people in each line. There were more people at that stand than in the stadium. A couple of people said it was worth the wait, but alas, I would wait!
  22. Is that the ones that have a stand in PNC Park?
  23. But are usually embarrassed enough to add a generous tip! The biggest problem I have with my clients is trying to answer due diligence questions about "documents" when most of the answers I know through long, personal relationships. But they do get a kick out of it when I ask if little Bobby is still their kid.
