United States - December 2007

I had just gotten employed at this business and I'm a college student. However, I am concerned if they will take taxes out of my check, being that its the end of the year, I was told that they wouldnt, however, if it is true, then I'll budget. So my question is: Can the gov't deduct taxes from your payroll check when its the end of the year?

Hi, I'm from New York State
I was recently married on 10/01/07 and I am only 18 years old.
Right now I am filling out FAFSA information so I can attend college in the Spring and my mom told me she is claiming me and that my husband cannot claim me because we have not been married for a year
--she also said that she has the right to claim me because she supported me all of the year 2007 up until the end of September


can she do this?
or can my husband claim me?

Okay....I have a hard time figuring out how much money my husband and I are supposesd to be getting back, and I have a couple of questions!

First....we are married...I did not bring in any income this year. I just started a job last week, however I am self employed!
So, can he claim me as a dependant? Everyone says yes, but when we did our taxes last year they told us NO!

We bought a home in September...can we get money back from that....and how do you determine that?

I'm considering doing my holiday shopping online, and had heard that it's tax-free, but most sites seem to be charging taxes, so I was wondering how much the cost difference would be compared to going to the store.

Eliminating today's complex income tax sounds wonder. The idea is not new. But would Congress ever allow that to happen? How much oppositon would Fair Tax run into? Impossible, yes or no?

someone told me to have them take an additional 10% to cover taxes so I wont have to do that in the coming year when I get the money.
I thought I had to pay the 20% penalty PLUS another 10% and THEN still pay regular income tax on the remaining 70%.
Is this correct ?
I dont wont to get stuck paying taxes at the end of next year because I didnt have enough taken out.
I get the money in January so it will pertain to the year 2008.
I was given advice that the 10% would be enough and I would have the 70% scotch free.
Somehow It sounds too good to be true.
Thanks for your answers.
_____________________________________________
# 2 - If for some reason they wont take out that additional 10%, Could I go ahead and pay taxes on the check in January 2008 when I get it ? Thanks..

I live in my own place but support my girlfriend and child whom live in a %30 income apartment across town. I pay all of her and my sons expenses such as rent (which is only $65.00) all groceries, gas, etc. We choose not to live together for personal reasons, and she does not work because she is in school. I am going to claim my son as a dependant on my income tax although he lives with her, (she is going to fill out the necessary form for me to do so). What I am wondering is whether or not I can claim head of household on my income taxes?

I'm new to this filing-on-my-own thing, and I just realized, after going through my file cabinets, that I have some money coming back to me from Uncle Sam. However, when I file this, do I need to use a form that says 2007, or should I use one that says 2006? The money was earned in 2006, so I wasn't sure how the tax years ran. Also, since I am married but will not be filing jointly, and made under 50K, what form should I use? This grown-up stuff is hard. :(

I've made a fair amount of income in interest from CDs. I didn't make any quarterly payments so I want to start doing this starting this quarter knowing it's due on Jan 15th. I went to the IRS web site and they have a 1040ES form. Do I need to send in the whole form or can I just send in the payment voucher along with a payment?

Today I went to a store to buy the Miami Herald (I live in Miami). The price on the paper says $1.00. When I went to go buy the newspaper, the clerk wanted to charge me $1.07 (the Dade county sales tax is 7%). I told her that the $1.00 printed on the newspaper includes the tax. She said no. Of course I refused to buy the newspaper. After all, there are newspaper dispensers where you insert 4 quaters and get the newspaper. Can someone tell me what should be the price of a newspaper (using the example I gave)? Is this business breaking the law by charging the extra 7 cents? If so, who do I go to complain about this?

I know that as long as my baby is born before Dec 31st I qualify for the Child Tax credit...which I know he will be. (Having a scheduled C-Section Friday). This year I have only made under $10,000 due to pregnancy complications. I tried using a tax calc to determine my refund but it came out nearly DOUBLE what I actually paid. I have heard you can get more back w/ Child Tax and EIC. But do I qualify for EIC?? And if so is it normal to get back that much more than I paid?? I'm not married if that helps any.

I sent my tax return in via certified mail and the irs lost my return. They processed my payment that was with the return but lost the actual return and they are requesting I send it back in. They are expecting me to pay a outrageous amount of money based on w-9 that have been sent to them. I have requested a reconsideration of my return. My money has been tied up on this since may and now it is december. Is there any way to make them pay interest on my money and maybe compensate me for my time? Can I sue them for negligence of federal property?

I work for a Healthcare School and I want to do the LPN program. The whole amount is 17,500 and the owner is only giving me a 1,000 discount. I heard that he can give me 40% off and use it on his taxes and he will get the same amount of money back. How can I prove this? Is there a website that I can show him? And what difference would it be if he still got the same amount of money back?

Best answer 10 points!
