  1. client name was added to deed many years ago. no gift tax return ever filed. parent died two years ago and now dtr has the house with some property. she logged timber off just to clean area. income around 11,000. I don't know if she has any basis. I have the cost of harvest tax that was paid but basis? thanks for any insight.
  2. and on top of that she is probaly a free return! I do nine family members and only two pay me something then I feel guilty about taking their money because the others do not pay. I guess the only way I would feel good about this if they all paid, but that will never happen.
  3. have a client who now has his son takes care of all his business. his son has a power of attorny form. Can I just attach that POA with the 8453 instead of the 2848 IRS POA. His POA does state he can handle tax returns and affairs
  4. return rejected for dtr claiming herself on own return. dtr will amend. I will file federal paper but question is Can I efile the state only return? federal owes but state gets refund so would like to efile that.
  5. line 7 makes it earned income opposed to other income. could in some cases up EIC, MWP credit
  6. differece is the date will stay the same if you just go to next line if you hit next you change the date of deposit
  7. use substiute W-2 form
  8. father does not claim income on his return and the dtr does not need to file tax return for SS

    MFS

    MFS std deduction vs sch A. couple going thru devorce not final in 2010. will file separate. husband is gone and will probaly will not even file a tax return. moved out of state. if no return is ever filed or if IRS ends up filing for him and they alway use std deduction. I think if he did file he could possiblely file a Schedule A. some mortgage interest before forclosed. estimate A would be 6050.oo. how do we know if other spouse files STD or Sch A? Mine does not have enough for A. How do we decide which way to go. I know if one files Sch A then both must. thanks for any help
  10. I also update manually each morning and have turned off the automatic which by the way is the default when you load program for first time. if they don't want you to use automatic why default? My question is when there is a program update along with forms update doesn't it require you to restart the program? I thought it did but it doesn't always tell you to just sometimes. I close out anyway but do you have to after each program update?
  11. it's a joint return. does it matter what bank account the payment comes out of? Why does his medicare premium count then. Business didn't pay it. It came out of a personal bank account. I not saying I agree with the theory behind some of these deductions but I don't make the laws or If I did EIC would be gone!
  12. I think we can use the spouse medicare premium as paid for the se deduction. insurance can cover worker and family.
  13. when did we have to do that?
  14. it depends what year died if 2011 no but it 2010 then yes. if you read in the instructions for deceased it says to put executor name on the front of the 1040. I have never done that and didn't know if that was new. I think I am just going to have them sign the 8879 and go for it. SHe's owes so no refund to worry about
  15. program update today. mine have all gone thru no problems

    FYI

    I don't follow what you are saying. if they don't pay payroll deposit until filed with 941 how does that stop penalty
  17. SPOUSE yes
  18. does the plan have an age limit? I have a client and his plan has age limit must be 21 or over
  19. no but this is not a surviving spouse. its a parent. only thing different is that it does show deceased and date on top of 1040. everything else is just like she was still alive and signing herself
  20. this is not a spouse. an adult child died and mom is filing final taxes. I did do the infor on the efile tab but it does not go the front of 1040 per instruction. I have never seen one that did but didn't know if this wss new.
  21. deceased single taxpayer. money due. per instruction name of person filing the return as person in charge in no court appointed rep. is supposed to go on line next to taxpayer name. how do I do this in atx without override
  22. wow, you must not like unions
  23. thanks, I kept thinking about this last night and realized I had to debit back the checking account to return the money.
  24. working on the journal entries for the atm machine. we write a check to the bank for 10,000 for cash debit petty cash credit bank-checking put money in the atm machine. credit petty cash and debit atm machine account. so when the bank sends me a statement showing how much money was withdrawn fromt he atm machine do I have to do anything with that. Can I just treat this like a petty cash account and when the atm machine is low I just replenish the atm account. the bank pays me separte for my commissions on having the atm machine in business. thanks
  25. yes she should
