United States - March 2007

Hopefully I can word this correctly. I heard somewhere that if you own a home business, you can pay your child up to 5,000 per year for work completed around the office. I.e. clean the office, errands, etc. As long as the child is not paid over 5,000, they do not have to pay taxes. Is this correct?

My car was totaled on 7/21. On my 2005 tax return I listed it as <12% business use. Purchased another car on 9/8/06. Basically same usage but obviously more expensive car (newer). How is that handled tax forms wise?

Thank all of you for your answers, but some of you do not understand that my husband is in a wheel chair paralyzed on the right side, cannot verbalize, we are both drawing social security, which is not much, he does have a small amount of workman's comp., which is not taxable. I am his 24/7 caregiver so I cannot work and leave him alone. Does that answer some of the hateful answers I got? I don't like the situation, but it's there. Gone are the days when we paid up to $45,000 in income tax in a year. So those of you who are making rude comments, just be thankful you can pay income tax!!!

I don't understand the term "backup withholding" on the tax forms. I need to know whether to check the "exempt" box or not, etc. Thanks in advance!

I just recieved my check in my account form the one i did online. What is going to happen? Are they going to just give me the difference? The ammended one was more than the old one.

Hello everyone,

I have a question. Actually, I am filing 1040 for the year 2006. I had phone during the period Feb. 28, 2003, and Aug. 1, 2006. That was a family plan & bill was paid by my Brother in law & I used to pay partial bill to him. I want to know whether I am eligible for this credit or not. I am not going to be claimed as a dependent on anyone else's tax return.

I am taking a tax class and I have a research question...which neither the text, nor the actual site provides no definite answer.
(And I need a good grade...LOL!)

I searched the SS website...found nothing for this scenario:

"John Doe worked all his life. Jane Doe was a homemaker all her life. Upon retirement age, Jane draws a small portion of SS...based on John's earnings...the checks come with John's SS # on them. Jane is placed into skilled care, but, since she draws no SS on her own...she is allowed to continue her portion of John's earnings. Jane's daughter places this money into an account for Jane's needs at her retirement center (ie snack bar fund, clothes, snacks, soft drinks, etc.) John Doe unfortunately passes away...thus John's benefits will stop of course....BUT will Jane continue to receive her minimal (approx 43%)portion of John's benefits???
