My dad sold stock, given to me by a family member, when I was 14. He was placed in charge, per my relative’s wishes, and sold the stock, but he did not file the taxes on the capital gains. I’m now 20 and I got a phone call from the IRS saying that I am responsible for back taxes, he was acting as my guardian, since the sale was under my info.

Can I refuse and sort this out through the inland revenue myself? My employer has given me a form to authorise the deduction of tax and NI through payroll, however I want to pay tax & ni once I have sold the shares and not before. Am I making a fuss over nothing or am I within my rights to refuse and sort it out myself?

We have lived in our house for approx. 4 1/2 months and our real estate company just put a for sale sign in the yard out of nowhere. Now they have a lock box on our house and that means strangers in and out showing the house. They also want to cut all our trees and bushes down and want to publish picture of the interior of the house (i.e. all of our stuff!). I hate this house, I hate the neighborhood and now with this I am really miserable. Do you think there is anyway I can get out of my lease without a nasty process? Is there some kind of law relating to this.

P.S. I live in Florida if anyone is familiar with these laws.

Thanks so much for any advice!!

I am faced with a dilemma. I need a knee replacement and have a tentative date of March 2008. My company is closing in January 2008 and I will go out and get another job after the surgery. The insurance company has been excellent in sending me a replacement check every week.
Will the bank consider the weekly checks as income when we go to apply for a home loan?

I live in Indiana (6% sales tax), and was in an ice cream store. I've frequented the store in the past year, enough to have six stamps on a coupon that said "Buy 6 Regular Cups, Receive the 7th Free." So I turned in my coupon to the woman, she rang it up, and I started to leave. She asked me to wait while she tried to figure out how to ring it up... and when all was said and done, she said I owed her $.30 in tax, on a $4 dish of ice cream I was supposed to receive for free. Not only was the tax she asked me to pay more than I would have paid if I had bought the ice cream dish myself, but sales tax should only be charged, to my knowledge, for any amount of money paid for a good.

I believe I'm correct in my assumptions, and that what the manager did was illegal (I gave her $.30). I want to write the company and inform them, but I don't know enough about tax law to be sure what I'm saying is infact, illegal. I need information to back up my belief--- can anyone help?

authority for about 3 years. They require that you report any income changes within 14 days that the change happens. On Dec of 2007 I lost my job & filed for unemployment, as you all must know the whole process w/unemployment takes about 1-2 months before you FINALLY get your check. I had ZERO $$$ so I really had no choice but to apply for cash aid/welfare. I let housing authority know about my major decrease in income immediately (they took 2 months to adjust my rent). Then on Jan 2, 2007 my Doctor put me on disability for major stress & depression. So immediately that closed my case for unemployment, although they still had to pay me for the month of Dec 2006 because at that time I was able to work. So all these goverment programs all take a while to kick in, so I received most of my money (back pay from welfare, unemployment & disability which took about 3-4 weeks) the end of Jan 2007. I reported my income changes to Housing Auth/Sect 8 w/in the 14days, they are claiming

When my wife and I bought our home eleven years ago, we had the option to go for a teaser rate or an adjustable mortgage rate. We opted to bite the bullet, get a fixed rate and pay a higher monthly payment for the next 30 years (11 years on, it seems small!). We paid a bit more, but we made what we thought was a sound economic choice.

Now the President is bailing out those individuals who chose for the cheaper option and now find themselves in financial crisis. Who do you think will ultimately will pay for this $350 billion shortfall? Not the mortgage companies. It will be the American taxpayer. In other words, people like my wife and I will end up paying for the greedy and short-sighted financial stupidity of others.

I don't recall getting a bailout for the large loss on the value of our investments when the stock market crashed in 2000. Why should we pay for this?

How sad is it when you watch your employers doing a group interview and lying about the company?

How sad is it when they are considering hiring the person because of the company the person came from but not the merits of the individual?

How sad is it when the group thinks the applicant is articulate when infact you heard the same responses and brought up inconsistancies in the statements?




I guess the crux of my question is....why bother to hold an interview if your mind is already made up and why pretend (about the company you work for, that you actually care about the person's credentials, that you ignore the inconsistancies....) ?

For instance, let's say you earn before-tax wages of $100 as an employee.

You pay $7.65 FICA taxes.

Now, do you pay income taxes on the $100 or $92.35 ($100 - $7.65) ?

Please help!

Thanks!
