Monkeyman Posted January 9, 2008 Report Share Posted January 9, 2008 Hello Everyone, I was bored so I started doing my tax return today As some of you know, I had another Daughter in August. In the column for "Number of months in the home for 2007" do I put 12 or 4? If I put in 4 she doesn't qualify for the tax credit. Should she? How should I handle this? Monkeyman P.S. - I am sooooo happy to have you guys here to help The shoe is on the other foot now, huh? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NECPA in NEBRASKA Posted January 9, 2008 Report Share Posted January 9, 2008 Yes, she will qualify for the credit. Just put in 12 months and it should work. Bonnie Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tax Prep by Deb Posted January 9, 2008 Report Share Posted January 9, 2008 You would put 12. A child born at anytime in 2007 is considered to have lived with you for the full year as per info in Publication 17. Deb! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Monkeyman Posted January 10, 2008 Author Report Share Posted January 10, 2008 You are a bonehead, but I'm allowed to say that Miss ya trouble! And no, the baby has not been born yet. When are you due, Danielle? And yes, compared to your (and Nicole's) superior intellect, I am a bonehead :P Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Danielle Posted January 10, 2008 Report Share Posted January 10, 2008 When are you due, Danielle?

Lion EA Posted January 11, 2008 Report Share Posted January 11, 2008 Now wait a minute. Just how many ATX employees and ex-employees and temps are having babies, anyway?! Isn't there anything else to do up in Caribou, Maine? That's the opposite of death and taxes. How do the conception dates coordinate with the closing of the tax forum? Or, the buyout? Or, any other significant (to us customers, of course) event? Did all that sex have anything to do with the price increases? Or, the layoffs? (I think there's a joke in that one, someplace, but I'm not going any further.) Anyway, congratulations to all the new parents. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Since August, there were 2 babies born to call center reps. I had another little girl and another rep had a little boy. It appears Danielle's bun is still in the oven past the due date. He would have made 3. The winters are very cold here in Caribou. Hence the 2 babies in the Fall Monkeyman Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lion EA Posted January 12, 2008 Report Share Posted January 12, 2008 ...and Danielle's baby refusing to go out in the cold! Again, congratulations and good health to all the new residents of Maine and their proud parents. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
