If someone hasn't paid their taxes and the IRS put a levy on your bank account but the amount in the bank still wasn't enough, can that person still call the IRS and make payment arrangements for the back taxes or they'll just keep on taking all the money in the bank account unitl all taxes are paid? This of course needs to be paid but how flexible can the IRS be if the person who owes the taxes is on a permanent disability and no means to survive except for the money she gets from SDI which is now being taken by the IRS from her bank account. She doesn't get much from SDI and it will take several months for her to pay the IRS even if they take all the money from the SDI.

At the end of the year, do you have to file it on your income tax? What if you do not hold a job at all that year, but still win a sweepstakes for like $5,000?. What do you do?

Father has a property subject to a nonrecourse mortgage with a balance of 200K, and his adjusted basis in the property is 100K. He gift sales the property to his son subject to the nonrecourse mortage. Since a gift is a nonrecognition event, does the son take the 100K carry over basis and assume the 200K loan? But, under Tufts v. Commissioner, hasn't the father essentially been forgiven the 200K and thus has a recognized gain? These two seem irreconcilable. What would happen here with basis and gain between the father and son?

I have some music gear that has good resale value; I can probably sell it and get almost what I paid for it. At this point I am unable to write these expenses off (a couple grand) because the government would consider it more of a hobby than a business.

Should I sell this gear and then buy it later after I'm able to say my band is a business? Or should I bite the bullet and keep it?

I also understand I'm also able to write-off gear year after year that I had bought in previous years. I can't remember the term for this, but how much would I be able to write off under this clause?

Advice to help me a poor student save some bucks is appreciated!

I know that currently the IRS standard for gas mileage reimbursement is .48 cents per mile. Is it mandatory for an employer to reimburse at this amount? What is the IRS intent behind setting the reimbursement amount at this amount? When When I cut reimbursement checks for employees in the firm it seems like a lot of money for driving to and from Office X. The IRS must have intended that the reimbursement cover more than just gas. Does anyone know of specific sources?

I made a loan to a person and they are paying me back . This was for a loan to help them purchase property. My question is this. Are the payments I recieve considered additional income that I have to pay taxes on. I paid tax on the money once and loaned it out. There is no interest involved but if they pay me back $40,000 all at once when they get their loan, is my money I loaned them considered additional income that I have to pay taxes on again?

My property taxes for $600, were due Feb. 2007.
I did not have the money to pay them.
I tried to refinance my house twice (in Feb & March)to pay the taxes and get a better interest rate. I was refused, because of the housing market. (Basically, my house appraised $40,000 LESS than it did, 6 months before...And this was WITH the $25,000 main bedroom & office addition that I paid cash to do! My life savings were used to do this addition. I considered it an investment into my property).
I asked my mortgage co. to put my taxes into escrow (I did this so my taxes would be paid & so I wouldn't lose my house.) It took my mortgage co. 4 months to do this.
I EXPECTED my house payments to rise an extra $100 a month. (It would be hard, but I would do it, until the market got better and I could refinance).
Yesterday, I called to ask why I have not heard anything on why my payments have not changed. I was informed, that my payments would be going UP $200 a month starting Dec.1st.
