Abby Normal

It doesn't give you an option to make it editable? I don't use Adobe because I hate it. I've used Foxit PDF reader for awhile but I'm always looking for a new reader. I just downloaded the file I linked to above and Adobe does say it opened it as read-only but there is an Enable Editing button top right. This is why I warned about saving it as a PDF/A. Apparently, I did a Save instead of a Save As.

Yeah, I've had this happen with MD a couple of times and MD wouldn't even refund the excess since we didn't claim it on the tax return. I had some heated letters back and forth with the Comptroller of MD's office and I think they might be playing nice now, but I encourage all my clients to make online payments now.

I'm so glad I have very few of these types of clients.

Pigs get fat. Hogs get slaughtered.

I've heard the IRS wants to focus on improving their monitoring of RMDs as more and more Baby Boomers are hitting 70½. They have all the info they need to do it, they just need the resources.

It will also export a pdf to excel. I just did it for an Assets by classification report and it worked perfectly.

The videos that David Attenborough and the BBC have provided us are as amazing in their content as they are in the quantity. I've been watching them for at least 40 years. I was watching one Sunday morning and they showed a timelapse of the Resurrection plant that covered two weeks of growth and resulted in 10 seconds of film. The dedication that it takes to do that in the middle of the Sahara desert boggles the mind. I have no idea how they get so up close and personal with some of these scenes and I wonder at how long they must search and wait to be able to capture them on film. And the dangers they must face to do all this makes it even more amazing. We owe them a huge debt of gratitude.

I don't know the answer but this article might get your research started. Good luck and keep us posted!

Are you sure they're not looking for Gross Receipts Tax?

So if a vacation rental belongs on Sch C and shows losses every year, does it become a hobby?

Just realized I've been evaluating the Advanced version. I will have to buy the standard version to evaluate it. They have a 30 day money back guarantee. The standard version is only 69.99. Advanced is twice that. They have a comparison chart but I can't figure out if it has the features I need.

We've been down this path before. I still can't relate.

Whoa! You can batch add page numbers to ALL your organizers! It's a little technical to get it set up, but once you save your settings, you're set.

When you save the file after converting it to fillable, do a 'Save as' so it will be a PDF and not a PDF/A.

If this folder is so unimportant that you can delete it and ATX will recreate it, why don't they just delete it every time the program closes and recreate it every time the program starts?

If ATX Server will not start, delete this folder: C:\Windows\System32\config\systemprofile\AppData\Local\CCH_Small_Firm_Services I watch tech support do this once and saved it to a text file.

Always happy to share. Cheers!

I forgot to attach the new organizer and I forgot to mention that I added page numbers. 2014 Blank Organizer-Nuance Fillable.pdf

Just found another program that did a much better job, Nuance Power PDF Standard. It created the fields better with a larger font AND made the square boxes "checkable" with a click. Now I just need to get ATX to make the Yes/No boxes on the questionnaire square so they too are check boxes.

A quick google search turns up abundant results.

Waltz is one dance I can do... but I have to count in my head. #NotaNaturalDancer

Often the pensions get paid into a foreign bank account and the recipient transfers money to their US account. I ask for the foreign bank statements every year to make sure they didn't go over the 10,000 USD, and I remind them to keep that foreign account balance low.

Could be useful. Haven't had time to review it yet. http://www.bls.gov/bls/blswage.htm
