United States - October 2007

As an elected board member residing in Michigan, I need to attend board meetings 4 times a year. I can do so by conference call, but I need to attend in person at least twice, to be effective. Do my travel expense qualify as deductions?

My fiance and I just had a baby. We were going to get married before the end of the year but due to certain circumstances we will marry next spring. Anyways, we live together and as such we jointly provide for our child. He makes 3x as much as I do, but I gross less than 11,000/year. I will also be starting grad school in the fall. In terms of the financial aid for my education and our individual incomes, who should claim our son. Again there is no primary caretaker or custodial parent on account of us living together.

My divorce will be final next month and I have agreed to let my ex claim the youngest child. I have been paying little over $500 a month in childcare and was wondering can I claim the childcare credit. This is his last year of daycare and I want to get the credit, but I don't want to break any IRS rules.

Sincerely,

Aliecia

I am wanting to open an online store with a certain home made craft and I wanted to know, what information do I need as far as taxes? Do I have to file only if I make a certain income? I live in California if that makes any difference to the answer.

Can you file seperately? Or do you still need to keep filing jointly? Reason I'm asking is because my husband owes back child support, and they will start taking it out of our tax returns, so I was wondering if I can file seperately?

Can anyone give me specifics as to why these two taxes differ?
Also, isn't there something about "federalism" that says the federal government can't take money from the state taxes?

Any help would be awesome : )!
And if you have the sources for the information, that'd be great too!

When I left my employer in early June, I still had some flex med receipts that I had not filed with my employer's plan. I planned to submit the receipts, but waited almost until the end of what I thought was a 90-day grace period (after June 30). When I filed the receipts near the end of September, I was told that my deadline to file was actually 90 days after my end date with my employer ... so I would have had to file the receipts at the beginning of September.

So now, they're telling me that because I didn't "use it," (the funds), I "lose it." And my former employer told me that the language about "90 days after leaving employment" was in my flex med paperwork, so I should have known -- and thus have no appeal (ignorance is no excuse for the law).

Is there a way to appeal and regain these lost flex med funds or possibly to at least write off the loss on my taxes? Does the IRS have person who deals with these issues? I welcome any advice.

There are Social Security Deductions, health insurance, savings plan, and other deductions, and then there are 2 different deductions marked FICA. One of the amounts is significantly larger than the other, and we have no state tax.
Can someone please explain so I don't look like a fool going to my employer?
