ILLMAS

IL income tax is based on Federal AGI, if by any chance there was some AGI in 2013, the state of IL is one of those states that communicates with the IRS.

Thanks, I will contact our county tax assessor. MAS

Question for my non-profit friends, let's say somebody bought a building that was a church or a community center and was exempt from property taxes, now that the building is privately owned, it is now subject to property taxes. Can the new owner apply for property tax exemption if they will be leasing back to church/community center? Thanks

Does this person brings in the same lunch everyday in the same tupperware and submits a reimbursement for meals, working more then 8 hours day?

Speaking of sick kids, many years ago a client brought in his two grade school age kids and was letting them run up and down the hallway without a care in the world. After they left, we found out the kids had drank almost all of the coffee creamers because they didn't bother to throw them away.

Update: I called ATX tech support, the problem was ATX has different ways to login into the account, I was told to login going via a different website and it worked.

Here is the message I am getting, I tried using another browser: 170XXXX\Admin AuthenticationType: UUMS-MFA-Email Logout

Can someone do me a favor and check to see if you can login and view your account. Thanks I am able to login, but get a blank screen, like it's being redirecting to a different webpage.

Does anyone know when will the system be back up? IRS website does not mention the day it will reopen.

The port that failed on my computer was the HDMI, VGA still works, are you using an HDMI connection?

I had the same problem with a Dell XPS, I was using dual monitors and the video card finally went out, but it only affected one monitor, I am the awkward person with two monitors but only uses one of them.

Does anybody know if there is M-2 equivalent for a 990? A fellow accountant friend of mine client had a financial audit for 2015 & 2016 after the 990 was prepared. He is having trouble for 2017, if he keeps the beginning balance (from prior year tax return), then he cannot balance for 2017. The problem is solved if he uses the audited financial statements balances as of 12/31/17 but then it will not match the tax return that was filed. Can he just use the new beginning balance or is there another form to reconcile the balance? Thanks

Show this to your client: https://www.legalmatch.com/law-library/article/theft-by-conversion.html He can file a police report and make his friend a wanted person, this will get his attention.

I sent you a PM

Does anybody here have a client that didn't offer any health insurance and is now getting notices from the IRS? If yes, did you or the IRS calculate the penalty? Thanks

I hate when this happens, I sometimes tell my clients, help me help you.

Thanks

Does anyone know if one can prepare a consolidated tax return on ATX? Thanks

Yes unreimbursement but for 2017.

Your thoughts one this one.... 1. TP works for a IT company that has no fiscal offices in the US, so the TP uses their home as an office. 2. Employer office is in Tokyo, but has US corporation to conduct business here. 3. Employer has a government contract which requires the TP to troubleshoot over the phone/remotely or travel to the base which is 40+ miles each way. 4. Not everything can be done over the phone/remotely all the time, so travel is required about 80% of the time. Can the TP deduct mileage even though TP is required to be at base most of the time? Thanks

I was there, what a fun seminar.

I had no problem so far, I don’t duplicate 941’s per se, I duplicate the client, I name each file something like this: Abc 1st qtr abc 2nd qtr etc... I am not in the office to check which 4 letter code you are referring to.
