Wasn't the 2008 credit only $7,500 with repayment? You should advise them to amend, but they will make the decision. You get to make the decision about taking them on as clients. Is there 2008 return MFJ?

Processing Delays for Forms 1040X The IRS is experiencing higher than expected inventory levels of Forms 1040X, Amended U.S. Individual Income Tax Returns. Due to these inventory levels, the processing timeframe is temporarily extended to 12 - 16 weeks (normal processing time is 8 - 12 weeks). Contacting the IRS regarding the status of the return is not necessary and the returns will be processed as soon as possible.

Maybe I'll make up some signs for the hallway between my front door and my office! Anyone want to suggest appropriate poems?!

Doesn't sound like this is the case if church has money sitting around to distribute, but churches do have to avoid having a substantial portion of their income disbursed to one person/family/entity.

I remember almost every one of those. Loved Burma Shave signs along Rt. 66 going to my grandma's. And, thank you, KC, for fixing the link. Getting old was getting depressing, but I had a good doctor's appointment this week and a good eye doctor's appointment, too. So, that great movie made me even happier!

That might be it. Thank you! Off to a different client's site today, then I'm going to get through this Form 1065 Friday or else. I just don't do enough of these to know where to look when I'm out of balance. Thank you very much, everyone.

Good work, Tom!

It felt great to shower! I'm bumping this one more time in hopes of more details re reporting SIMPLE contributions and health insurance premiums for an active member in an LLC/partnership.

Bump. And, I have water again tonight. I can't drink it or do laundry for a couple more days, but I can shower!

That is the upside to a storm; we'd have warning and would fill our large basement set tubs with water. When the pump died, it did so quietly. We continued with laundry and dishwashing and such until the holding tank and the hot water heater ran dry and surprised us. Thanks so much for the good wishes.

Thanks, Catherine. We used up all our Y2K water jugs to brush our teeth, wash our hair, take sponge baths, etc. I feel clean but soapy; it's hard to rinse without splashing the whole room! Tomorrow morning I'll go down to Curves early to shower before an appointment with my internist at 9 a.m. Supposedly, the pump man will install a new well pump tomorrow. He did come out last night, and the old pump was definitely fried. He leaves for Martha's Vineyard tomorrow, but is sending his brother who works with him to us ASAP. We filled buckets and jugs from a neighbor's hose to tide us over for another day. Just drove the three of us down to our church to use the bathrooms to save our newly filled tanks for overnight. Usually when we're without water, it's because we're without power. So, I'm really thankful we have electricity and air conditioning and friends.

Well, I obviously used box & line numbers from 2007 forms where I was looking to see how I entered the SIMPLE and HI on this return last year. 2008 has things in different places, but you know what I mean...

A very :bday:

Yes, I posted this on two different boards. I can't find where some nice, smart person helped me last year. I have only one of these and struggle with it every year. Probably doesn't help that this is only my second year on current software. I searched on SIMPLE and other words to try to find past discussions with no luck. LLC taxed as a partnership, husband and wife 50/50 partners. Husband is not active and took some distributions. Wife is very active, took guaranteed payments, family health insurance premiums, and SIMPLE max plus matching. I think I add health insurance to guaranteed payments in most places in the return EXCEPT for Schedule M-1 where line 3 is GP (other than health insurance). Right? And, on her K-1, I should have line 13 L health insurance and 13 Q SIMPLE. Right? If you happen to know how all this works in ProSystem fx, I will love you forever. Last year everything came out right with only one override and balanced. This year, I discovered why I needed the 2007 override and did that item "correctly" on 2008 but am having trouble with the M-1 flowing as mentioned above. And, I'm out of balance by about the amount of the health insurance! Wouldn't it be nice if all my clients used the same type of retirement plan so I could master its reporting?! It's late and our water stopped several hours ago and I need a shower before I can face this client. Thanks for any direction re this partnership return.

A very to our birthdaymeister. We also intend you to have many more!
