That happens for me when it contains a poll and maybe when it's been "stuck," can't remember for sure on that second issue.

Hey, Eric. My favorite thing about the new Forum is that the GO button is higher up so I usually don't have to scroll down to click it. I love lots of other things about the Forum, too, but that's a handy improvement that I use on every post. You're a gem. Thank you for all you do for us.

NYC tax for the time she's resident. NYS tax for the time she's working in NYS. So, she may end up with part year returns the year she moves. In NY, the NRPY return covers both nonresident and part year. Someone who's done NJ more recently than I have will need to answer re NJ the year of her move, but I remember having to prepare BOTH a NR and PY NJ returns.

Happy Thanksgiving! :P

Congratulations to Catherine! Also, get well soon! And to all 1,000 of us, congratulations on having the good sense to post and share and provide moral support and good humor (and even bad humor) in season and out. Happy Thanksgiving! :P

Thank you. So, it wasn't me?! Now, I won't feel I've missed something important if I mark "read."

A very :bday:

Congratulations! I have no idea how old this topic is. Everything has those orange boxes telling me there are new posts, even when it sounds really familiar. Either I missed a few pages of posts or those already read did not register with the updated forum. So, I'm trying to catch up.

Just had a demo of the CCH Scan and also the Auto-Flow. The Scan gives you a list of documents in tax return order, all labeled and flowing in an outline along the left. It compares it to your proforma return to tell you what's missing. Auto-Flow for about $10 per return brings what you choose into the return. If a client calls for a copy of her W-2s, you can copy just those pages out of the larger .pdf and e-mail her, upload to your website or CCH Portal. Looks pretty cool.

Absolutely wonderful, Eric. Thank you very much!

Just a child.

Is this part of an older person spending down their assets, going into housing, preparing for SS and Medicare, etc.? An elder care attorney or someone specializing in estate planning might be correct. If this is someone who's already low income and not likely to improve, I'd suggest she work with the financial aid department of the housing she seeks or a public agency recommended by her town social worker. If she doesn't have the retainer, perhaps a local law clinic run by a regional law school.

I've had the best luck with HP. All my HP printers are still working in our household/my home office. I think I might buy the little (small footprint) HP laser that prints 35 pages/minute before tax season. I have a huge color HP, but a small just B&W to keep closer to my desk would probably speed up my production. I'll keep the HP color in my office for correspondence, marketing materials, etc., but shift to the faster HP for printing tax returns. Of course, I also hope to print most of my copies to .pdf this year to have less paper to print out and store.

Nap. And, to all under the weather: remember that we are here for you to vent. We'll send prayers and sympathy your way, and if close enough, some chicken soup too! Oh, and let your family deal with laundry for a week.

Take good care of yourself. I don't know why we moms/wives/women don't get the same care from others as we give them, but we don't. I find that if you give specific instructions (bring me fresh ginger ale every hour on the hour; buy chicken noodle soup; bring me the ice bag with half ice and half cold water) you will get some care. Don't be vague. Sleep.
