both my daughters live at home one is in high school the other is in college last year i claimed them both (since i provide all their care) for EIC. Heres the question........my oldest daughter had a baby, can i still claim my daughter on my income tax and for EIC? And can she claim the baby on her taxes(even though i use my daughter on mine) and still get EIC? I provide all the care for her (housing food etc.) she works and provides for the baby except for shelter.

I have a debt that I have been disputing for about 2 years. Recently, I received a phone call from a new Collection Agency who has stated the account will be sent to arbitration before the beginning of the year if I do not pay $4000, which is close to the amount I actually owe. In the past they have been saying it was $8000.

I would like to pay that amount and solve this problem once and for all.....however, I am not able to do so in the 2 weeks they have given me.

Is there anything I can do to delay the process before it goes to arbitration?

It seems the owner of the debt keeps switching collection companies everytime I seek verification of the debt. The current company has only been managing this debt for less then a week. They claim they do not need to verify the debt.

What should I do?

Public records show my house 100sgft smaller than it is. And they
don't show a two car attached garage. Let alone the fact that it sits on 1/2 acer instead of a postage stamp lot. And another three car
garage out back w/half bath. Triple wide concrete driveway. Oh and
a 10X20 hand biult on a slab out back that had no damage from Ivan.

I have a co-worker who claims to have been an Eagle Scout; however, he seems to be quite clueless about basic scouting information. Is there any type of validation process where I could, in fact, confirm that he IS an Eagle Scout (directly with BSA)?

We have had numerous problems with our rented home for the year we've been there. Our lease states that our landlord is responsible for all major repairs, and we've kept all of our bills paid, yet our plumbing is clogged, the cental heat and air unit exploded because of exposed wires throughout the house, and there is a huge beehive on one side of the house. The landlord admitted after we moved in that he's had problems with bees, plumbing, and electrical hazards for years, yet he said that now it is "our problem" and if we don't fix it, he'll sue to have it fixed for his next tenants (we are having to move because the house is really falling apart from all of the problems) This is his only renthouse and we are his first tenants. He also said that we can't get our security deposit back because he's already spent it. He also said that he never put any of our rent money into a separate account for possible repairs, and has spent the thousands we paid for rent over the year.

There's this chick who is the same age as I am, who had an issue with me since I first got there. The diff. I'm in college and she has 4 kids and smokes weed all day. I still respect her cuz she is a manager. I called in to work saying I could come today cuz my aunt needs to be taken to the hospital. She told me If i can't come in, I'm fired. I called to speak to the head manager and he arranged a meeting for us. I don't think it's fair that i was fired cuz I have no previous write-up or complaints, she was just waintgin fro a chance to get rid of me.At the meeting should I mention the fact that she sleeps on the job, steals food etc.

My phone was disconnected today due to non-payment. I paid the bill on the due date of Dec 1st by phone on the automated system. The payment was accepted ,but held for five days then sent back to my debit card b/c of the credit card companies b/c of zip code error. I corrected the problem within minutes and called the phone company to report the correction. I want my phone back on b/c I did correct the error within a reasonable time and contacted the phone company. My phone company however charges fees, shouldn't they be waived and my phone turned back on? Never use SAGE TELCOM. Things like this have happened before like this to me with this phone company, and they have turned the phoine back on before w/o fees. Shouldn't they do it again.
