It should be 30 days, so you pay your taxes on 4/15 and pay your first estimate on 4/30, but it doesn't matter, because this will never pass. Some accountant will calculate how much interest it will cost the government to delay the 2nd and 3rd quarter payments by a month and it will be too large of a number. Abby Downer (wah wah)

And there's the problem. None of my few gamblers have any interest in keeping detailed logs.

Catherine would probably rather have a gun, anyway.

Yes, I saw yours and Eric's shields. Will all the shielded folks be in a group called something like Knights of the Computer Table?

I suspect they'll just summarize annually, like brick and mortar casinos do, and the gambler needs to be the one keeping track of sessions.

Which portal are we talking about?

I don't see a shield but I do consider my two profanity warnings a badge of honor. Oh, and thanks, Eric! It seems I only cuss every 4 years, so look out 2022!

For now, at least, this is a one time deal for 2021, but I can see that some would like to make the child credit monthly payments permanent.

Wait 20 minutes or more then retrieve acks. If no luck, rehang again.

I have a client who wants to opt out in lieu of making estimated tax payments.

Every IRS communication I've ever seen abbreviates the street name suffixes. They also drop 'The' at the beginning of business names.

Was able to log in as Admin and reset our other accounts. It let me use my old password, so I'm not sure what happened.

If you can efile without the attachment, do it. Then mail the docs in.

Two of us tried and it just says 'login failed'. Before I reset my password I thought I'd better check to see if anyone else is having trouble logging in.

Are you saying there's a watermark saying "None" across the return when you're viewing it on screen?

It may have installed an add-on in Firefox or some program on your computer. Look in your firefox add-ons first, then run a good uninstaller program to see if you can find it. Also I'd look in programs that start automatically. I recently started playing around with Ultra Virus Killer and it has a lot of features to help in your quest. You might want to also upgrade your internet security and/or antivirus, since it didn't block this adware from installing. If all else fails, you can refresh your Firefox to create a new user profile. Good luck!

There's little sense in calling the IRS for late refunds, as long as the 'where's my refund' page says processing. MD has not processed my refund yet. It usually takes days but my return included the new 502LU form introduced mid-tax season, so I suspect they're giving extra scrutiny to any returns with the LU. Either that or they're programming for accepting LU forms was flawed.

Tangled up in Blue is one of my favorites. If you ever wondered what Bob Dylan songs would sound like with a singer who can really sing, check out one of my favorite band's albums that's all Dylan covers. http://www.davestruestory.com/music/dylan.html The music links on that page are broken, but you can find the songs on youtube.

A reasonable discount for a good tenant is allowable because you know they'll take better care of it than many other tenants. I'm comfortable with a 25-30% discount for relatives not violating the FMV rule.

As a proud Grandpa to 7 grand kids, welcome to the fold! It's awesome. Grandpa is the best job I've ever had.

I think you're missing that they get to take all of that missed depreciation this year. See form 3115.

We have 5 or 6 users and I noticed some slowing down too. Of course you're never sure if it's heavy network traffic or the ATX database bogging down. And our phones use the network as well. Our ATX database is on a computer that no one uses so only the necessary background programs are running on that computer. I suspect our slowdown was due to multiple users creating efiles at the same time. That really seems to bog down ATX. And we have Large Address Aware installed on our server computer.

True, but just like with the recovery rebates, the IRS will straighten it out, just like they do with estimated payments, that clients sometimes give us wrong amounts for.

The IRS deserves some kind of award for what they've done this past year and what they're still doing.
