United States - November 2007

I was told to start a LLC in wisconsin, because you don't have to pay taxes there. But if my business is operating in Washington state, wouldn't I have to pay Washinton state taxes on any income I made there? Therefore defeating the point of starting a LLC in Wisconsin to avoid paying taxes. Shouldn't I just start the LLC in Washington?

I really need to know about this one. If you get into a program online or win a large sum of money, and then donate 10% or more of it to a charity of some sort. Are you then exempt from paying taxes on that income? Please answer with details & a source.

My ex husband and I both claimed our daughter on our 06 taxes. Our divorce papers state that the father can claim her as long as his support is current. Kansas law requires that support be paid until the child turns 18 which she turned 18 in February. He continued to pay support until the end of June. She resided with me the whole year until going to college in the fall. Am I in the wrong for claiming her on my taxes?

Is it possible to have money in a Cayman (or any other tax haven country) account and lend that money to an LLC here in the states to purchase real estate? What would be the tax benefits of doing so? I would imagine the interest payments that are paid to this Cayman company are a tax decuction here and could lower the tax liability of the US LLC.

We lost our mother last year and she left us some money invested in mutual funds. State estate taxes were paid. The funds were transfered within the brokerage and invested in the same and similar funds under our individual names. They have appreciated about 4% this year. What do we pay taxes on; the original amount AND the gains, or just the gains?

What do you all think about abolishing the tax code as it stands now, and implementing a Federal tax on purchases, all purchases. This can be added to the state tax you pay at the counter. Then it would be a fair tax across the board. You buy, you pay tax. The more you spend, the more you pay. Eliminates the write off's the rich use to avoid taxes.

I just found out that the company I work for has not paid the payroll taxes for Aug, Sept, or Oct. By law, they are supposed to be reported. My question is, once reported, how long is it usually before the IRS comes to the door? They were late paying for one month already this year, but not like this. They haven't even paid the employee portion nor do they have the money to do so.

I guess that I've always considered shopping at these places as "a charitable contribution" because I can get the items new elsewhere. I just think that its a great charity to help support so I try to do as much there as possible. But I've never claimed all the money that I put towards that on my taxes. I was told I could by someone at work but they're not an expert so i thought I would try and get a solid answer. Anyone have any insight?

Ok last year was the first year we claimed our daughter. I have made a little bit more this year than last due to a raise. My husband quit his job Oct. 2006 and got a new job Feb. 2007 and got fired from that job Nov. 2007. He made less money at that job. My question is should we be expecting the same amount we got last year or more? Do you basically get the same amount a year when you claim a kid? Thanks

Please advise if you think a business would be less likely to be audited if it were a S Corp, compared to being a single person LLC.

I had it explained to me this way - If you operate as a corporation, the IRS must come to you to conduct an audit, but as a single person LLC you file a Sch C with your 1040. Therefore as an individual filer you are required to go to the IRS for an audit.

So it costs the IRS more to conduct an audit off site (1120/1120S) than it does in their offices (1040). As a result, given two similar businesses, the IRS is more likely to audit the one that files on a 1040.

Does that seem logical, or from experience, have you found that it doesn't really matter?
