Well, my husband and I paid 58% last year in taxes. I swear! sm
I won't tell you our gross, but it's above average, we both work 70+ hours a week and we are struggling to pay our bills - parents of 3 young children.
I am scared to death of Democrats being back in office. GW at least wants tax breaks for families like ours. If the Dems are in office I'm afraid we'll be taxed more to help pay for people like my niece who had babies beginning at age 13 and has never had a job in her life. How can this NOT outrage anyone - yet I know there are people out there who tell me to get over it, it's life, those other people are 'entitled' to our money. It's absolutely vile and disgusting.
Oh, well, knew I would owe anyway this year
from sell of a property this past year, place that belonged to a relative, so made arrangements for big $$$$$ and hopefully that will take care of all.
Taxes are deductible and it does help out at the end of the year.
Be sure to try to get fixed. I have 7.5 fixed for 30. They do have 40 yr mtgs now. And you can always refinance if your financial picture changes. When I moved into my home, i had no cable, a junky car and ate like a poor person. Once, to make my mtg, during a really rough time, i sold my bedroom suite. Keeping the roof over our heads is #1 priority. You sound like someone responsible enough to do this. Would you qualify for this loan on your own? Getting his name on this house might not be smart thing to do during these rocky times?
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!
Why don't you ask the accountant who did your taxes last year?
I'm sure they are better able to answer that question than anyone here.
I was told this year by the lady who our taxes...
that if it the dictations are 2% of your income for the year then it will count...she told me to keep a list of everything just in case but I don't think my deductions would add up to anything since I am an employee...
1 ck to feds, 1 ck to state, divide last year's taxes into 4 payments...

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.

After I went to a 1-year MT course at a vocational school, it was so bad that I did the 2-year colle
Not only did I finally receive the proper training, but the woman on the advisory board hired and mentored me. I also joined the local AAMT and networked. Good luck. I know how frustrating it can be. A community college will have a good program to include medical language, MT courses taught by local MTSOs, business English, anatomy and physiology, pathophysiology, etc.
I think he makes $700,000.00 a year, and if they ask him to walk before his first year MQ has...sm
to pay him a cool 1 million dollars. You can check this out at the Medquist website. I think the CFO makes $350,000 a year, and the head of IT makes $250.000 a year.
P.S. This does not include the perks, like expense account, car allowance, sign-on bonus, etc.
Our 16 year old son has been working for a year now to pay for his truck.
He's learning how to sand and do body work and how the engine and transmission go together. My parents didn't buy cars for my siblings and I either. I had a 20+ year old beater car until I could afford to move up to a a newer one.
I see all the nice new cars parked in the high school parking lot every day. It's nice that so many disrespectful punk kids get handed something nicer to drive than what all the teachers drive. Oh, well. Honestly, I think most of them borrow Mommy or Daddy's car or are the child of a doctor who can afford to hand them everything.
Hopefully, my kids will take better care of their cars because they bought and built them on their own. You're not going to grow up to be responsible if you don't work hard for something and expect Mommy and Daddy to bail you out all the time.
Oh, my Dad lectured us on even allowing our child to have a vehicle because Dad didn't have one until after he had worked his way through college, lettered on the football team, got straight As, lettered on the baseball team, yadda yadda. He either walked or hitched a ride. Yeah, well, times were different back then, Daddy-O. LOL At least my kid has the opportunity to work and earn his own car.
IC - 30 hours week, $98K last year. So far this year - 28K. sm
Individual IC - own account(s).
Not me, owed last year, and expect to owe this year- sm
or break even, had more expenses this year. Only owed $200 but still don't want to owe at all. Need to start doing estimated tax payments again so I don't owe! Guess I will get off my butt and do that this year.
You have your W2 showing very clearly those taxes were paid. MQ is responsible for those taxes
because you were a statutory employee. That is the responsibility of the employer to pay those just as though you were an employee.
come on.. you cannot compare a 2-year-old and a 15-year-old

46/F I have a 9-year-old girl and a 12-year-old boy.

Got $$$$ back last year but this year
I have to pay them, sold a property I never lived in but I had enough sense to set aside $45,000 so just waiting on them to send me my WT2s so I can get started.
taxes must be paid either way
No matter type of business you set up, whether it be sole prop., LLC, etc., you still have to pay taxes on that income. So either way, some sort of paperwork will have to be filed with your state when it comes to tax time. The state and the feds want their cut of your profit.
You MUST have 90% of your taxes paid by Dec 15 or they will penalize you.
My DH was having more taxes taken out of his pay to cover me but not enough and we were always getting penalized. Now he's smartened up and raised how much they can take. Hopefully this year will be better.
Always paid my taxes and on time so never
had to worry about this, but I would be leary of any company wanting $$ for services. I'd just call the IRS and tell them the situation and see what they say. Of course, this late in the tax season getting through may be an impossible task. If you have a local IRS office it might be better to go talk to them in person.
Not my place to make sure her taxes are paid
I can only take care of my end. Not in her head when April comes around so??
Today I heard you have to had paid that much in taxes
Heard that today and I think it is only fair if they do it that way. Cannot see how this will help as all it does is push this country further into debt. As a nation we cannot pay our bills as such and then they think that by giving people an extra $800 that it will help with our economy -- rather have them keep it and get us out of debt. Here in Oregon, people get money back in state taxes who have not even paid because of the child credit and I do not agree with that -- will get flamed for that I am sure but feel that people need to be responsible for raising their own kids and not ask the government or me to do it.
right, taxes are paid in the state where you earn 'em...
since you work at home, you earned your wages in your state and pay them to your state.
Ask me next year. sm
I quit as an IC telecommunting for a hospital where I was making $35,000 a year, and started for a national as an employee in April. So far, only made $4600 with them. Big OUCH! But just getting the hang of expanders and the 4 accounts I have.
Can't wait to see my end of year :(
less and less every year - sm
Used to be about $35,000, now is about $30,000
Can RAM die? I put in more RAM last year so I should have 768 -- but it says 256 now- sm
anyone have any ideas? I am positive after I put in the new card back in early 02/2005 it read 756. So if anyone had any insight or suggestions I'd appreciate it.....might explain why my computer has been a bit slow lately...we have also had a lot of power surges/outages lately, but I do have battery back up now (after it wiped my work out 2 x), maybe it got fried from that? TIA.
About a year now. Don't like it. NM

3 year old
I am very glad you have a happy ending. A friend of mine, who is an MT, had the same thing happen to her with a tragic ending. Her son had drowned in a pond on their property. He was also 3 years old. They just don't realize the danger.
Make sure he removes his make up before he goes to sleep, LOL.
Big S does. For one year.
I am actually thinking of dictating the information into a microcassette and then hiring a typist to type it out for me.
year-old
I believe I put it in Autocorrect as -yo and then expended to -year-old and it finally worked.
I kept a log my first year but never again. NM

-year-old
When you save -year-old in your autotext check the formatted text box NOT the plain text. This should work.
I did it one year...sm
I lived in PA and was losing about $300 a week because of being out of work. It wasn't really worth it because they only gave me $20 a week to make up for it. I did it over the internet, so paperwork wasn't a factor, but keeping up with the check-in dates got to be a pain for so little money. Unfortunately, it doesn't seem like there is much help for us during the slow time. Unemployement isn't just for the totally unemployed. If you are losing work due to things beyond your control, that still counts. Hope this helps!
Well, I did get a cat the next year...
so Dorothy was treated to those three cans of cat food! However, she didn't like 'em.
Maybe next year
she can blind carbon copy everyone and nobody will be the wiser.
Anyone else with an 18-year-old
My son is pulling the "greater than thou" attitude. I don't know if this is his way of getting me to kick him out of the house or what. He is to start college next year and we had told him he could stay here to save on rent, but I don't think it is going to work out. Also, what obligation do we, as parents, have as far as assisting in college payment?
> 1st of the year I think she said. nm

My ten year old said to me the other day, sm
Mom, you look like a Saint. I said, "a Saint"? He said, "ya a Saint Bernard"
So much for the new year being better than the last.
Life could be a lot worse, right? I know, but I still have no work even at a different job. I still have no money. My bills are still behind because my jobs have just snowballed in the past three months. Home life is the same old, same old. Can't get the kids to pitch in without complaining. Still can't get them up in the morning despite moving their bedtimes back. Can't get the husband to cut back on the budget. His job has been really slow since Thanksgiving, too. Christmas was the same old thing. I wound up returning my Christmas presents again this year. Nobody gives refunds even with gift receipts so I get to use the gift cards to buy groceries. I don't know why I thought the new year would be any different. It's so darn depressing. What's the point of trying so hard when nothing ever changes?
What year?

$700-$800 F/T, although 3-year-old
is constant interruption. Not her fault, of course. She is going to the sitter's starting next week. I have seen how much of a difference it makes when she is not around.
It's a man's year this year!
They are unstoppable. It's too early to call for me, but my best friend thinks it's going to be Elliott. He is good. Beautiful voice.
I was going to do this last year
but figuared my then 3 year old would just splash my laptop. It would be nice to have one but I don't think I would get much work done with my son. He is an only child and wants to be played with a lot of the time
One 3-year-old and trying for my second!!
I have only been doing this for a year..
and I am fully aware of all of the above, except the (GERD). Like the others said though, that is just probably how the account wants it done. My account wants the 2 spaces after each period though, so that is how I do it.
I personally would not worry about what other people are doing. If they are not doing their jobs right, that will be their problem. By correcting the above though, you only benefit yourself.
I would suggest entering some of those in your expander. I have bid put in to expand out to b.i.d. The same goes for q4h, expands out to q.4 h. Once you enter all those in, you won't have to worry about doing it wrong anymore. It will correct them for you. It doesn't get any easier than that. Good luck!
Why don't you come on over and see for yourself. I have a 2 and 4 year old
boys who are the most well-behaved children you've probably ever met. Yes ma'am, no sir, etc.
This one will really get your panties all in a bunch! I actually started pre-k at home with my 4 year old AND transcribing. How's that one for a kicker?
I plan on homeschooling both of my children.
They are very well adjusted. I worked a split shift and do most of my typing at night when they go to bed.
By the way, I used to be in daycare. That was my first career. I wouldn't be so quick to think that those kids are getting any more attention than they are at home. Trust me, most centers have a ratio of 10:1 and even more! I can promise you this: It's natural for a child to be with their mothers and not strangers from infancy all the way through adolescence. They WANT to be home with their mommy's and in some cases daddy's too, even if their mom's are working while they are home. It's a great sense of security that our precious children have knowing that their parents are not going to leave them all day with some stranger. How do I know this? Because I worked at a center before becoming an MT. Those kids would cry, some infants would cry all day long. Doesn't that tear at your heartstrings?
Please don't feel sorry for the children who are home with their moms or dads while they work from home regardless of what they do. I have met more well-adjusted children whose parents work from home than from working parents who choose to work out of the home, which I don't condemn. I just preferred to be the primary caretaker in my children's lives.
