Business & Finance - 29 December 2007

I am not affected by any of the forms that are included in the delay of processing tax returns (Form 8863, Education Credits
Form 5695, Residential Energy Credits
Schedule 2, Form 1040A, Child and Dependent Care Expenses for Form 1040A Filers
Form 8396, Mortgage Interest Credit
Form 8859, District of Columbia First-Time Homebuyer Credit) So will the IRS still wait until Feb. 11 to process my tax returns? The only reason I'm courious is we are leaving to go to Disney World on Jan. 18 and even though we have plenty of spending money, it would be nice to have that extra chunk of change to take with us so we could do even more for the kids

My husband and I seperated in June. He moved back in with his parents and I stayed in our rental house until I moved into a smaller apartment in early August. During the duration, I have taken care of both of our children on my own. What documentation will I need when I file my taxes to show my head of household status as we haven't filed for divorce?

Also, when he files, if I have filed HOH, can he file his return "married filing seperately?"

After downloading the program, I was shocked to see there is no instructions on how to set this program up.
I have been told that I would need to pay to take classes on how to learn to use it.
Does anyone know how I can learn this program off the net, as I neither have the time (working full time) or the money to invest.
Why would Quicken do what I think is such a dirty money grabbing trick?

I have gotten at least 7 purchases returned/refunded that I bought online with a credit card (ebooks/downloads) and I'm wondering if there is any way that other sites could see my return history. I am not trying to take advantage of anyone but the sites offered a money back guarantee and all of them I was not 100% satisified with. (I only purchase downloads/ebooks online if theres a guarantee because for some reason a lot of them I am dissapointed with). How is someone able to see the return history?

I'm a little ignorant as im not even 18 yet. (my mom gave me permission to use her card).

I used to work at a science centre. I had had no previous experience in working with wild animals. I was nervous to start but very passionate about doing well.
Unfortunately, one morning when I was misting some of the habitats and cleaning the water dishes, a small amount of bleach water had been left on the counter where I had placed one of the bowls. The following morning, one of the tree frogs had died. I understand that the gravity of one, tiny tree frog dying may not seem very bad to most of you, but where my job was concerned, I probably appeared to be unprofessional, maybe even "immature". The fact of the matter is that I took it upon myself to complete the morning tasks before everyone arrived and simply made a mistake. I was then transferred elsewhere to finish my credit.
I'm now looking to volunteer at an animal refuge centre where she also works. How should I approach this situation? What if she recognizes me and makes me look bad to everyone else? What if she mentions it?

I have a very limited understanding of the stock market, so bear with me. My question is this: When people sell and buy stocks, does the company profit at all? The company gets money when the first stocks are sold, and then after that people buy and sell the stocks. But the company doesn't get any more money from the buying and selling of stocks, does it? The company has already gotten its money from you, so how exactly does the value of the stock go up? I hope you all understand my question!
