She's sold about $30 worth of items in 2006, (none in the state of NY where we live, so she doesn't even have to pay tax on those sales..right?) Yet we have lots of expenses we go through for this "home business" that she's started, (heat, electric, phone, etc..)
she keeps all the transactions seperate by using (paypal). so i shouldn't have a problem filing a schedule C right?? My buddies keep telling me that the law doesn't state that you "have to make money", but i feel weird stating that we only made 30 bucks and yet deduct a couple hundred in expenses...
what do you think??

I just called the IRS and the lady yelled at me! said i had to have re-occuring sales every couple of weeks and can't go around selling my junk instead i'd have to purchase items and sell for profit. I told her i did purchase but sold at a loss...then she said she was transfering my call to investigations and i hung up quick! now the phone won't stop ringing and i'm scared!!!
You think they'll come for me?????
