The state (Alabama) penalized me this year.

In Reply to: IRS never penalized me, pay once in April - I chose not to pay quarterly, yearly only..nm
I was told they do not the first year, but after that they do. It was like $50, and I will have to pay it again this year since it was June when I was hit with it, but I am seriously thinking of paying estimated tax starting next year.

I know. I was penalized too, but the first year--sm
that you claim IC status, you do not have to do estimated taxes. Anything after that, yes you do. I was penalized over 400 by federal and 40.00 by state this year...I really do not like doing the estimated tax thing, but I will from now on. I can use that extra money more than they can. lol. sorry you had been given the wrong info. I had seen someone say you don't have to do estimated taxes if all is paid by DECEMBER, but even that is wrong. If you are late paying quarterly even, they can assess penalties for that, too.

I did not pay state taxes last year...sm
and wanting to get them paid now ASAP so it will not delay my tax return now. Does anyone know how the quickest way I can do this and get credit so as to not mess up the timing of my tax return. It was only like $130.00 but we have had such financial hardship this past year that that was hard to come up with at times. I was wanting to do Turbo Tax like I have for the past few years. Any ideas? Thanks!
1 ck to feds, 1 ck to state, divide last year's taxes into 4 payments...

IRS never penalized me, pay once in April
Oh yes. If you are penalized, you have to pay interest rates sm
that make credit card companies look generous. Better to have more withheld than having to owe. I hated filing those quarterly returns. yuck.
Anyone being penalized for sending reports to QA?
I guess I have it all wrong when it comes to QA. I thought it stood for quality assurance. I send reports to QA when I have a blank. I put a blank when I am not 100% sure of what I heard, including the spelling of the patient's name. I want to make sure the patient gets their report typed up accurately. I want to turn in the best work I can do. Why is it that wanting a second set of ears to confirm what you thought you heard a bad thing ending up in being penalized or terminated if it goes beyond a certain %? I am very confused. I refuse to "guess" just to fill in blanks even if it means I will be fired. 
I've been there 2+ years and NEVER penalized for sending to QA. nm
You're human. Blanks happen. Should never be penalized for them. nm

Work for a company in a state that has no state income tax
I think there are 3 or 4 out there (Florida, Texas, and a few others.) Then you really avoid the tax situation.

Thanks so much for your help here. We're retired, my husband is a retired truck driver and THANK GOD we have the ability to help others in need. If we can just find out who, what, when and where, we're prepared to rent a truck, do a drive here locally and bring the stuff but we've made phone call on top of phone call and no one seems to know how we can help except to donate to the Red Cross but we want specifically to help the forgotten people.
$15.00 an hour for MT in Alabama
I work prn for a hospital in Alabama. I make $15.00 an hour. This is with no benefits and no insurance. When I worked full-time for them, I made $12.00 an hour and had benefits and insurance.

Katrina in Mississippi/Alabama
Does anyone know of contacts in Mississippi/Alabama that are needing help for their people who have lost everything? We chose to donate cash to the Salvation Army. By the time I got around to cleaning out my closets, neither the SA or ARC were taking clothing donations and I'm one of those people who is very bad about buying things and then never wearing them so much of the stuff has tags still attached, not exactly junk. Now that it's gathered up, I'll just donate it to our local Helping Hands but would like do whatever we can do to help the people of Miss/AL in particular. It seems they are the "forgotten refugees." At least in our area, we see very little about them but did see a news clip last night that looked like they were as devastated as NO, if not more so. Surely they need help too? TIA for any info.
RE: Katrina in Mississippi/Alabama
We had the same problem. All kinds of good stuff and no one had room left for donations of clothing, etc. Our community came up with the idea of a gigantic garage sale and donate the proceeds to the Red Cross. So that is exactly what is happening next weekend. Sorry if this is a double post, my cat ran over my keyboard. He feels so good every morning!!
Alabama here - Huntsville area
I'm also from Alabama, in the Huntsville area. If you're an IC in this area, you're lucky to get .12 per line. Huntsville is supposed to be so high tech with all the NASA, Boeing and Marshall Space Flight Center stuff; unfortunately, the doctors in the area still have the 1975 price mentality!
I know there is a large transcription service in your area that handles some physicians in this area and they're only charging .12 per line, so it may be a bit much for B'ham. If you would like to know who I'm referring to, please e-mail me at tow46@aol.com and note this in the subject so I won't delete it.
North Alabama Transcriptionists
Are there any hospitals based in North Alabama who use at-home Radiology Transcriptionists?
Huntsville, Alabama Hospital
Does anyone have any experiences to share about Huntsville Hospital in north Alabama? I put in an application thinking it was only sports medicine (I have PT experience mostly), but their Medical Secretaries probably transcribe for the full range of hospital services. I'm supposed to get in touch with them tomorrow to talk.
TIA!
Back off Alabama, Jack!
them-thar' fags????
You know...I came on here to rip you up but I think you did that to yourself...I just would like other people to know that at least ONE person in Alabama isn't emotionally/mentally/morally challenged as this poster.
And if you have a problem with that, I'll let Carlos Mencia do the talking for me! Du-du-doh!!!!
Any North Alabama Transcriptionists?
I posted on the state board, but I don't think many people go to that board. I was just wondering if there any home-based transcriptionists near me. Thank you for your time.

You can still get grape Nehi in Alabama. sm
I love the peach Nehi too. You can make some really good ice cream using what ever flavor Nehi you want and two cans of Eagle Brand.
Moving from Alabama to Sacramento, CA
Getting married in December. Fiance' has been there for a year now. How is the transcription job market in California. I have a work-at-home job, but thinking maybe I can get something local. Compared to Alabama, the cost of living is extremely high though. How is the climate there, any and all info appreciated.

Hi,
I was just wondering if anyone had any good/bad info on this company. I can't seem to find much information on them. Thanks.

No, everyone in Auburn, Alabama does not live in trailers.
A lot of the students attend Auburn University.
Name a state and put every company in that state under suspicion.
Tell what the first letter of the company is and every company with that initial will be suspect. I would imagine that everyone who works for that company has received an inquiry from department of labor, so they would all be aware of it.
Why do we persist in setting up companies to be torn down when there is no reason for it. If a company is suspect, then give the name of the company, don't give big hints that cover at least 5 companies, 4 of which may be the best companies to work for, but fall into the category of an alphabetical letter, etc.
Contact your local BBB in your state and in their state if different from yours.

Not mandatory, as you state it depends on your state - sm
or county. Where I am I do not need it; though if I was cutting grass or landscaping I would where I live, makes no sense to me as I am providing a service, but very happy I don't have to have one. We pay personal property tax here and I would have to list all my business related equipment and pay taxes on it every year I was in business. So until I am told otherwise by my county, I will not be getting a business license.

well now there's a trend. doesn' t everyone in auburn, alabama live in a trailer?
what college do the trailer park students attend?
Look, if you knew me you wouldn't have said those things. I live in Alabama! We hate sm
them-thar' fags. Honestly, I am probably the MOST unprejudiced (if that's a word) person in my entire family! I'm constantly rolling my eyes at THEM because they use inappropriate names to refer to people and I don't like it.
I am a conservative who doesn't believe in same-sex marriages! I am totally against it.
What I am saying is this: This lady is NOT making this stuff up. It happens. We may not like it, but it happens. and here's the real kicker: We need to love these so called "degenerates." We really do. Like the Beatle's song goes: All you need is love...
Love can make them turn around. Really!
In North Alabama, school starts back August 4th. We get out the end of May.

Mine are in year-round thank goodness! They've started their new year 2 months ago.

Union diesil mechanic - good pay, great benefits. We swap year to year on who brings home more sm
money.....but I am an IC and he has all the benefits...health insurance/dental that the company pays for, pension plan, 401k, etc. Factor all of that in and he makes way more than I do.

Some people just CHOOSE to live in DE NILE (DENIAL) and we all see you are ONE OF THOSE.
Some of us CHOOSE to go through life as a REALISTS!
 
Things are different from state to state, but I think
you probably could, if you are actually "laid off." You would have to get a letter from your surgeon regarding your temporary disability status and take to the unemployment office and to Medicaid....but you know how Medicaid works, 1.5 pennies over the income limit, you don't get it. But, as I stated, laws differ from state to state, so you would have to inquire or go on their websites and see what they will approve and what they will not.
