I looked up "boycott" on answers.com and it said refrain from buying and such. I am writing a story where part of it's history was a boycott agaisn't taxes and nobody really "buys" taxes. (At least, to my knowledge...) So I was just a bit puzzled.

So I just looked at my credit report and found 2 negative items on my rpt. They were medical debts from a hospital that I never went to that has been sent to the collection agency. So the 2 items appeared as ollection debts on my report. I called the hospital, and they have no knowledge of the bills or that they have been sent to collection agency. so I disputed the items with the 3 bureau and now those 2 items are erased from all my reports.

My question is, how long would it take for my score to go back up to what it was 6 months ago? (6 months ago is when the mysterious items appear on my report). Would my score shoot up right away as soon as those 2 items got erased? Or would it just increase slowly over a few months? a year? before my score is back to what it was 6 months ago ?

Please, How can I stop crying.
I am working in a contract job and I just missed out on extending my contract - it went to someone else and I feel so stupid because I didn't ask for an extension earlier because I was down with cough and now they hired someone else and I can't stop crying!
I hate and don't like myself for making stupid mistakes like this, and although my former boss told me not to worrry and he'll see what he can do, and although I have written a petition letter to God and I earnestly and sincerely feel that I still want to work there and help others , I can't shake off the feeling that I am careless and i dont like myself for that.
I m wasting precious time and I m mentally and emotionally exhausted.
I have been working contract jobs ever since graduation because I am unable to get any good permanant jobs so far. it seems so easy for others to get great jobs but so hard for me. I can't understand why and I really wish that my contract could be extended.
pls help

and my total NET income is roughly $38,000? (My husband and I claim our taxes jointly. )

So, again, our total medical payments for this year will be roughly $3,766 and our total NET income will be $38,000.

What is my AGI? Is that my net income?

IS my math right: 7.5 % of 38,000 equals $2,850. I subtract 2,850 from 3766, and I get my total amount that is deductable, which is $916. ???

We are dealing with a landlord who has not provided a lease and are concerned that not having one affects our rental history, which in turn will hurt our credit history, when we decide to buy a house in the future. We would like to use this argument to convince the landlord to provide a lease, among many other reasons.
