Okay I am changing to getting paid bi-weekly instead of weekly here is the layout to help:
Right now I get 520 before taxes and 430 after taxes
If I start getting paid bi-weekly and get a small .25 cents raise and end up getting 530 a week before taxes and that is 1060 every two weeks, I am claiming 1 on my taxes, I want to find out if anyone may be able to tell me about how much I will get every two weeks after taxes and if there will be a big change of the amount taken out. I know my mother said that it will change because I will be getting more on a single paycheck since it is every two weeks and that I will get a lot less then I normally do from 430 every week after taxes. Thanks

I need to get a job. According to my mom, I need to get a job by next week, or no phone, internet, or car.
Now, I have a boyfriend who I only get to see on the weekends(he lives in Orlando, I live about 2 hours away).
I'm 16, and I know I'm probably going to have to work at least one weekend day.
I usually see him every other weekend. Would I be able to say that usually every other weekend I go out of town to "vist family" or something? Or do you think wherever I end up getting hired won't let me have every other weekend off?
We've been going out for a year and 7 months, and the long distance thing isn't too hard, but it will be when I can only see him for 1 and a half days every other week for the next year until I graduate.
Any thoughts?

My ex boyfriend and I own a house together (we get along well and usually can work things out so that's a plus). He hasn't lived in the house for 2+ yrs and pays a minor portion of the monthly mortgage (him 150$ and I 800$). Since he has moved out I've delt with the roommates/housemate issues (we rented out some rooms in the house), delt with the house maintenance...etc. We may sell it in 3 yrs or I'll buy him out. Since he hasnt been paying 50/50 mortgage I dont think its fair if we split the equity 50/50. Are there any laws protecting me as I do live in the house and he lives out of state?

Then my lanlord raised the rent by 200 bucks a month, I did not move because at last minute I had nowhere to go, so now it's a bit harder be on time. I have only been late once in almost two years, and only by three days.

How likely do you think he would move up my rent due date by 6 days? I get paid the second Wednesday of the month from Social Security. (Kids dad died). Then I have my pay checks. But I need a few more days and am scared to ask him, how should I ask him?

I was married last Friday. A very high class ceremony with all the trimmings. Anyway, a long story short:

We did all the normal stuff - speeches, dinner, 1st dance…. However, I will admit, I did rush through greeting / thanking all the guests so I could grab the 'gift box' filled with all the money envelopes.

I finished the last table & told my wife I had to use the men's room - instead a took the box to our room and counted all the money. It was eating me alive to see how much these people gave. No family of 4 at my wedding is giving $35 and getting away with it!!

About 90 minutes later my wife and some other concerned guests found me in the hotel room. I explained what I was doing but they were very angry. They even SWORE at me!!!

I really was not gone that long & don't think it is that big of a deal. I wanted to make sure we made a profit on the wedding.

She is still fuming mad - states she was embarrassed. What is wrong so wrong with what I did?

So my lawyer tells me there is absolutely nothing we can do at this point. We had a Chap 13, but between the mortgage payments and the payments to the trustee, we couldn't make ends meet. So the Chap 13 was dismissed. now we have four weeks to find a place to live, he says. I want to try and refile the Chap 13 to buy some time, because we want to sell the house. Any thoughts?

If I had a few credit cards that didn't report to experian, and did to lets say the other two, is it possible that even with bad debt/histories, etc, one agency can list you with a great credit score while the others have you lower?

Also, if that's the case, then isn't that saying you can technically get away with bad credit, as long as it doesn't get reported?

My TransUnion score is 666, Equifax at 675 and experian at 768, or something like that.

It's just so different, and I have absolutely no idea where I stand.

Also, I guess it's foolish to just establish credit history, if you don't know that those creditors are reporting to all 3, or even reporting at all isn't it?

That feels like you're being ripped off at least establishing a credit score, but then again it might come in handy if you're delinquent, or went bankrupt, and those creditors haven't reported.

What's the deal, can we really get away with things if they're not reported, or will the agencies catch on?

What can I add to my health insurance appeal form, to make it more convincing? I have a feeling they are going to reject my appeal so I want to sound confident and, if you will, intimidating.

What do insurance companies use to determine your insurable?
I just applied for this awesome job that I really want. It is now depending on that the company finds me insurable for driving a company vehicle. I havent had any traffic tickets or anything since 7/04. But prior to that, I had a suspension for too many points. The points were from speeding tickets, mostly 5 overs. The points have dropped off by now, but the violations are still on my record. Anyone out there work for an insurance company and know if I would be insurable? Or work for a company that uses driver checks and what they look for?

Wed night I got a call from a guy who said I was chosen to recieve a free $1000 shopping spree, and 3 free magazine subscriptions. I had a feeling this was a scam. Well he said they would send out the stuff in the mail in 5 days, so I said ok, then he said his boss was going to call me to make sure everything was good. So the boss called back a few min later and goes over everything with me, and then.. says that I have to pay for Time magazine every week in order to get this shopping spree and other magazines. He said it would be about $15 a month, and asked me how I would like to pay for it. Well I was not going going to give someone my credit card info over the phone, so I told the guy I did not have my credit card with me, so he said he would call the next day..

I currently work as a staff accountant at a CPA firm and I am interested in becoming an Enrolled Agent.

I plan on taking a course tax course this fall either through our local junior college or through H & R Block and I am having a hard time chosing which to attend.

When I told my boss at work that I wanted to take a class this fall she thought the college course would be best. But I am not so sure...

I would like to study to become an enrolled agent and I want to chose the best way to prepare for the test. I have printed out the past test to look over for an idea of what will be on the test, but I want to make sure I can pass it. I see on Amazon.com they have study guides also...

Does anyone have any advice?

Thanks!
