A family that I know just got their taxes filed. They are a low income family (less than $20,000 yearly), and they draw food stamps. They have two children. Obviously they didn't pay out a whole lot in taxes because they didn't make it to tax. Still their return was for approximately $6,000. That's not a typo!! My question is how come families that earn a respectable living, do not bum off of the government, and pay out the butt in taxes always run the risk of getting hammered come tax time?

Is this the correct formula for the tax deduction:
Tax rate of 38.5% times all the mortgage interest I paid in the past year?

Also, If I owe $100 in taxes but my deduction is $125 (based on formula above) does that mean the govt. will send me a check for $25?

This year my friends, who all earn about the same amount of money as me, all got hundreds, if not thousands, of dollars back from tax returns. But every single year I get a total of like $4 back. The people at H&R Block told me I am probably getting a lot less money taken out of each paycheck and it's all evening out in the end, but upon comparison with friends, we're still getting about the same amount taken out each paycheck. Why am I always getting screwed over?

My daughter did some babysitting in 2006 for a neighborhood kid. The parent of the kid just called asking for my daughter's SSN, or address, etc. so she can claim what she paid my 16 year old daughter. She says she can only claim what amounts she paid by check, which by her estimation, is about $600. She also assures my daughter that it won't matter to my daughter because she probably didn't earn enough to have to pay taxes.

Tell me what you think of that. I'll have to call our accountant tomorrow but I am wondering what people think about it tonight!

I doubt the parent. I don't think my daughter worked enough to earn $600. Also, shouldn't the parent provide my daughter with some sort of form/statement of what she is claiming she paid in a year?

My husband and I receive a check each month from his mother, who has allowed a natural gas company to build wells on some laskeside property she and her brother own. The money she receives from what the gas wells yield is divided among herself and her three kids. I know the money isn't "gifted" because they're drawn on a business account she created solely for the gas well checks and we received a form last tax season to submit to the IRS. We didn't owe much last year because we had only been receiving the checks for about 3 months. Now that it's been a year, I have no idea what to expect and I want to be able to put away an amount each month so we can be prepared at tax time next year.

Does anyone know or can anyone tell me where I can find out how much I should be putting aside each month?

Thanks in advance!

A friend wants to know how much He will keep if he wins $55,000 in the lottery. He also likes gambling and says that the 40% rule should hold true for lottery winnings as well. That is, that if you are honest and pay taxes on gambling income, you should save about 40% of it. Is this true? By the way, He lives in North Carolina and that income would possibly bring his makings for the year to 70-80k (tax bracket information).

I rolled over a 401k from a former employer to my IRA in 2006. The 401k was a straight stock purchase plan, w/o any employer contribution. I had invested about $6000 in the plan, and when I did the rollover, the value of the 401k had gone down to around $4100 due to a drop in the company's stock price. Is there any way to take advantage of this loss when filing my 2006 taxes?

Thanks!

My son married a russian girl, and with her came her parents, they are 59 years old, don't work, have no income what so ever, live with my son etc... their daughter claimed them as dependents last year before she married my son.. just seems odd that you can write two able bodied adults off on your tax return ... I know that you can't claim children after a certain age, I would think the reverse would hold true for parents, maybe you could claim them AFTER they turn a certain age.. they are not citizens of the US. Does anyone know about how this works? Thanks...
