Can unfiled taxes from prior years be filed to be current?

What is the annual income maximum, that a person can make and not be required to file taxes?

If someone has not filed taxes in the past 6 years, can they file them now and get caught up? If so, how?

Also, if a person does not have W-4 forms for that time period, how would they get copies of them. If they are unable to get copies, how do they know what amounts to use for filing.

Thanks.

It's there a charity organization that accepts tiny credit card transactions?

I have a $100 Visa gift card that can't be reloaded. I've spent $99.37 on it, and I'm not sure what to do with the 63 cents left over. I thought I could donate it to some charity, but they seem to all require a $5 minimum. Any ideas?

Rethinking the passion--should I or should I not?

Before I get into my rant: would it be appropriate for me to write to professionals who have climbed the corporate ladder and ask for advice?

I asked my former college's career center, and I was turned away because I am no longer a student. Makes me proud to be an alum.

After a year of being a college grad and about 4 months of avid job searching, I've decided that I need to rethink my strategy.

When I graduated school, I thought I would just dive into nonprofit work with promotions and fundraising. Turns up that nonprofit work is tough to get into.

Now I've noticed that I'm deflated, even when I get a job offer, because I feel that I'm not going to get the job. In the end I am the one that dooms myself. And I hate that.

As a result, I feel like I need a new drive. For such a long time I was just kind, sweet me who just blew through life taking whatever life threw at her. Well now I'm ready to take control.

No big storm,tornado or lightning. just some wind and a little rain drizzle. The tree was not dead to our knowledge.
luckily nobody outside was hurt.
My question is- is the city any way responsible for helping cover or covering my deductible of my car. Damage was 3500.
I attempted to call the city but the person was out until Mon.

I live in Minnesota.

Being sued for credit card debt in Oregon, attempting debt validation, how do I go about it?

I am being sued for a four year old cc debt from Capital One by a lawyer from Collect America. The original debt was 1900 and with interest it comes to around 3900. I have not responded to the summons yet. From a newspaper article online I found this about the subject.
-----------
Challenge the collector

Jarzombek goes one step further and recommends challenging the collector to prove that the defendant owes the debt. Often, he says, the collector will not have access to the original contract or details of the debt to prove his case and any response from the defendant will cause the debt buyer to walk away from the case.

"You can appear in court by filing a written answer with one sentence: 'I deny the plaintiff's claim,'" he said. "I tell them to show me a contract, to demonstrate that they have the authority to sue."
-------
Other sources I found about validating a debt talk about sending the debt validation demand to the collector not the court? What should i do?
