I would like to see property taxes abolished & a 2% city tax of personal income be charged along with an increase in state income taxes. Here, in North Dakota, our property tax is way out of line, while our state income tax is almost nill. Some people want to abolish the state income tax. This would only benefit the extremely wealthy & the large corporations. With the 2% city tax & the increase in state income tax, this should help fund our schools & provide services for the entire state.

What exactly can you get tax-free during tax-free weekend? Is it just clothes and shoes? I thought all school stuff was included.

I recently got a job working at Pac Sun in California, and unfortunately like any working person I must now pay taxes at the end of the year "/. However, at my job orientation we were explained to, and given a written document, that both said we are required to wear brands of clothing Pac Sun carries. My dad's an accountant and he thinks that clothes I may be able to get tax returns for clothes I buy at Pac Sun now, as they are being purchased for my work "uniform", so to say. Does anybody know if this is true?

Hi, my husband and I just got married this year- I worked full time from Jan. through June, and will be a student for the rest of the year. I have also just taken out a student loan for this fall. My husband will have worked under the table the entire year- so his income is untaxed. There is no record. Technically he does not work. (Oh and he is not a student either.) We have lived together the entire year- how does the dependent thing work? And would it be better for us to file jointly or seperately this coming Jan.?

I have't filed taxes in about 4 years. The first two years I was in college. The first year I owed about 90 dollars. The second year the goverment owed me over 200 dollars. The past two years I've been working in S.Korea so I shouldn't owe any taxes. How can I file now and what should I expect in terms of fines? I really want to get back on track here. - U.S.A

I get a good amount of money to live on with disability right now. With this flat tax, they want to start charging 23% sales tax and eliminate income tax. I don't pay income tax right now. Essentially, all I pay is sales tax. This would cripple me and my little girl.
Are they proposing any sort of adjustment for people like us?

I have been offered a job through a church where the employer says that I cannot be charged taxes and so I don't have to claim them. I feel like this is not true, and need to have that 1099 form so I can file returns on this income. Am I right? Or wrong?

Hope you guys can help me out, here is my situation. I am 25 years old, I was 20 when I started my own business. The store did well for awhile but I ended up closing it up and I owed money to IRS. I have paid my income taxes I was behind on down to 425.00 and I checked my credit report and I have a tax lien on my report from 2005. I'm sure it's sales taxes from about 3 months where I didn't pay, I wanted to but I was dead broke. The lien was on the store itself and inventory in it but the store's inventory was sold right before the lien was filed so the lien is still on me. The problem is I don't know how much I owe, this was a small business and my taxes wheere usually like 300 a month so I'm figuring I owed about 900 to start with plus late fees. Who do I contact to work out a payment arrangment? & Should I keep my bank account?

As a small business it is important that I maintain a competitive edge with similar type businesses in my area. To do this I need to shop them, check their prices and their service. Can I write this off as research & marketing on my taxes, or is their any other fashion to go about doing this?

I will have lived at my primary home for 2 years in December. I want to get a lot line adjustment and basically sell my large backyard as a buildable parcel. I don't know if this helps, but my home came on three city lots and we are reducing it to two and selling them separately. It seems that since I am reducing, I shouldn't have to pay capital gains taxes. I am married and the value of both lots is less than the 500k allowance.

I just finished watching a documentary on Dubai and it stated that companies that are based there pay no taxes. If this is true then how does Dubai make money from the companies? Do they require you to employ a certain number of Dubains or do actual business in Dubai. In America once your company gets into the millions you are taxed 50% of your net income. They have to charge something or else every company in America would move there. So whats the catch?
