With the additional states choosing to tax internet sales, are more people going to choose to stop making internet purchases and instead choose to go to the regular brick & mortar stores? (ex. Shopping on Barnes & Noble's or Borders' web sites vs. going to their actual stores)
How do consumers feel about this tax on internet sales?

Currently I am in the 25-30% tax rate. I can easily find a part time job that would net me another 30K. Should I hold just give up 30% of the additional income or even more because this additional income will push me into a new bracket or is there something I can do to keep more of the money I work for. Will I be working for the Government? At what point is it a waste of time?

I was hurt in an accident and had a brain injury. When I came out of it and got my brain back I found out I had not paid taxes on income for 6 years. The IRS says I have to pay it and pay the interest and pay the fines. I AREE I need to pay the money. I was making money, just too stupid due to head injury to know to pay taxes.

My question is I am 43 years old and with what I can make it would take me 70 years to pay all the fines, back taxes with interest. They took everything I had and I live in poverty and while I make a good living it all goes to the IRS except for $700 a month to pay for food and housing.

Should I just Kill Myself becaue I will never have a life. If I make more money they said they will take more money out of my paycheck. I have been told I can not stop working becasue if I miss payments then I go to jail.

Should I just Kill myself? Would You? Be honest. I don't want pep talks, just real honest answers under the facts as they are now.

Filed on 1/16, CP-05 letter, call the advocate he sent me a letter on 3/28 saying what info I needed to send to him and that he would call me by 4/27, he did not. I call him he doesn't answer and his voicemail does not have room for me to leave a message. So today I called the IRS spoke with a very nice rep who actually tried to help me, he said that the date that he showed in the comupter for the advocate is like 3 weeks ago, incorrect!!! He filled out some kind of a referral for me and said that I would have to wait another three weeks, what really sucks is that I am almost sure they are reviewing it do to EIC which I claimed because I was nice enough to take custody of my nieces instead of letting them go to a foster home, but look who gets the short end of the stick. Now, I am stuck needing to pay my mortgage which is 3 months behind because of instead of paying it I paid my real estate taxes of 4000.00. Can anyone show me the light at the end of the tunnel please?????

Just now he decides to be worried. Says he is not sure he can even find much of the paperwork, w-2's I assume or whatever. What can he do? Should I tell him to call the IRS directly and work something out or what? This guy has kids and doesn't he risk going to jail for this? We are not talking about a rich guy here either.

My brother has got full time job(40 hours per week).He`s got an offer to take a part time job as an extra,what would be £500 monthly for him.
Does anybody know if his full time job will affect his part time,when they will tax it?I know they don`t take much tax from £500 (monthly),but will they take more tax from it ,if he will have another £1500 from another job?I mean when they tax your money do they put all your income together from different jobs ,or they just tax it all seperately?

Is it worth for him to do a part time job as an extra or he just should do overtime?

Do any of you good folk know what you do when you are about to start work but as soon as you do, income support gets stopped. I wont have anything to live on for about a month (apart from DLA which isn't enough) and will have to wait (I imagine) for tax credits to sort out and housing benefit too. I still have to pay my rent too. Any ideas? Been trying to get through to tax credits department, but no answer. I also won't have any evidence to give inland revenue till I get my first payslip with my hours and pay, etc.

We plan to use a home equity loan to rebuild our studio, putting the loan money in a separate bank account and using that account solely for "construction costs" to ensure the interest remains tax-deductible.

Question 1: We're paying an architect to design the building and we have to pay the city a permit fee to review and approve the design. Are these two fees considered part of the "construction costs" of a building so we can use the loan to pay these without worrying about the IRS coming after us?

Question 2: Given this scenario, would it be wiser to use a Home Equity Line of Credit so we only borrow what we need when we need it? My concern (as always) is variable interest rates on the lines of credit, so I'd get a lower interest rate today, but it might be higher next year.

Thanks!

Joe
