My parents make less that 110,000 a year and I make no where near 55k/year. I was wondering who would be eligible for the write-off me or them?

Another question... Can I claim both the hope tax credit AND the student loan interest tax deduction?

to keep it or does it go to the owner's of the house, or even better will it go to the family who lived there in that time??? Records will show who owned the house and family would inherit. True?

I moved out of MO to KS in March 2007. When I went to get the license plates for my car in KS, they charged me the property tax for the entire year. Now I recently got another bill in December from MO for the same property tax. Why am I being double taxed? Why do I have to pay the same tax to both the states? Why isn't this being prorated by either state?

If not what taxes would you pay and if you sell the domain next year (2008) are you exempt from CGT under the rule that if you fall into the 10% to !5% tax bracket you pay no CGT in 2008. This would be in the United States.
Obviously we would make a profit from the sale of the domain name.

My ring needs resized and I want a different style, and my husband's also needs to be made a smaller size. But we have in all five gold rings, three 10 carat and two 14 carat. Our local jeweler would only offer $50-75 for the whole lot. That seems extremely low to me. I'd like to get at least half our money back so that we can just buy my other ring and resize his. Is there any place that would buy them higher or am I stuck with that? Also, what are the chances of me getting a good deal on just like a trade, and have them redesign my current band? (a good deal meaning they take the other rings for most of the payment)

I haven't defaulted on any of my payments for two years and I've told them I'm moving out January 1st. I've already leased a new apartment for the next year thu 2008, so I'm at a point of no return. I don't know what to do with the keys for the condo when I leave... Has anyone here been in this situation before???

I moved out of my apartment on Nov 5, 2007. Since moving out, I didn’t hear from my landlord for 3 weeks. I called him to inquire about my security deposit and to remind him about the 30 day timeframe by which he had to mail it.

On Dec 3 I received a notice from the USPS notifying me of a certified letter which they attempted to deliver. I assume that this certified letter was from my landlord. I visited the post office the next day to retrieve my certified mail, however I was told that they could not find the letter. I was given the number to the office where the mail is sorted and I called them. I spoke with them several times over a week and the letter is still lost.

I notified my landlord about this on Dec 11, but have gotten no response from him.

Since I notified him about USPS losing my security deposit, is there an amount of time defined by law by which he must resend my security deposit? Or can I sue him since I never received it within 30 days in the first place?

ok, here's the deal. we have been living in this place for about 5 months and suddenly out of the blue the landlady says that we either come up with 1600 buck or she is moving in. she calls this morning to tells us that either way she is moving in. leagaly is it true that if she accepts the money she cant kick us out? its a month to month lease. and over the past few months she raises it to 500 bucks more, not to mention the house still needs work that was promised to be done when we moved in.

I am a college student and I am trying to lease a car next spring. I have a few credit cards I have had for about 4 months now and paying them off every month.

I do have money available to put down, and I get a certain amount of money each month from my relative each month but my actual income is pretty low because I only design web sites part time from home. So since I only have a part time job is that going to affect if I can get a lease? Or if I show proof of my total monthly income will it help? Sorry I just want to plan ahead. Thanks

I remember in the auto industry on the secondry market they had huge amounts of money. When buying a 'used' or "preowned' car they had rates up to 28%, then added (on the top) $1,500-2000, then the dealer took them for the downpayment, plus other add ons. When I loked at this deal I discussed it with one of the financial brokers and even though they had billions I told them that most of these people would "punt" or not make the payments. Added to that was tthe fact that they "trusted" the dealer and required no warrenty on the vehicles.

My pont was without a warrenty and if the car broke down, they the people would have no menoney as they had already throw most of that into the downpaymet.. I was told not to wrong. Repo rate was voer 70%. Same with housing. I read an article where folks bought a house in cal for over $500,000 and now it is not worth tha and "upside down.

Financial friend mentioned this and mentioned the housing market over a year ago, plus the dollar.

I am a college student working part-time for a legal attorney office as an Office Assistant for about 3 months now. When I was hired on they understood that I was a college student going to school and working at the same time, and it was clearly stated in my resume and repeated throughout my interview process. They claimed that they were okay with the fact that I went to school and up until this point have made accomodations with me when it came to school.

When asked about my availability for the upcoming spring semester, I told them that my availability was going to slightly change and now they have a big problem with it. Since then my boss has been nothing but rude and inconsiderate to me, and even told another employee who told me they were going to "let me go when they found my replacement". Is this discrimination and can I file a claim against them with the labor board? Also, will I be able to collect umemployment if they fire me over my school schedule

I sold 2 pcs 1 sony handy cam and iv posted them I also verified my paypal account and i have 300gbp in there to i transfered 200 in to my bank it cleared and now paypal are taking it back out of my account and have limited my paypal account their reason for limiting my account was that i am selling high risk stuff so i provided them with tracking numbers and they said they would get back to me.

Mean time i have contacted my bank to get the 200gpb transfer stopped my banks fraud department is dealing with that as i never authorized any of the direct debits.

I still have money in paypal which i cant touch i posted the handycam today so if i do not get my money back i have lost a sony handycam & the money.

I am very upset and paypal will not do anything.
I still have stuff to post but the money for those items remains in paypal and i cant touch it so do i keep the items until paypal lift the limits or do i send them out and risk losing those too?
What can i do?
