Whenever a website asks for my birthday, I give them a fake one. I think some of them are just checking that I am over 18

Hayden

I had not heard of this before. So you mail a letter in hope of getting the NIIT money back? Is this a real thing?

Hayden

You have to pay the same tax either way. So, personally I would choose the approach with the cleaner paper trail. Have the S Corp sell the assets. Then distribute the cash.

I do my taxes myself, so I favor simple, easy paper trails.

Hayden

It would probably be best to contact your state's exchange and ask them. In general CSRs are built into Silver plans that one is eligible to select based on income. But in this case you would be relying on the new and temporary unemployment qualification. Assuming you wouldn't qualify for the CSR p...

Call a store that just does Persian rugs. They will be able to tell you what kind of rug it is, where it was made, and advise you on what to do with it. I wouldn't waste time talking to a general purpose rug store. You need someone with specialized knowledge.

Great to know. Thank you.

I started a HSA-eligible health plan in January 2021. I expected to keep the plan for the year, so in January i fully funded the HSA for 2021. Now it appears that I will be switching to a non-HSA plan. What is the process to remove the excess HSA contribution? What tax forms/tax reporting should i e...

I was told that if one switches from a Bronze to a Silver plan, the amount of the deductible satisfied would transfer over. I was told this verbally. I wish i had it in writing...

The rug cleaner i used said they always test the colors first. Seems like that is something any reputable rug cleaner would do.

Hayden

<t>Its seems like for anyone on unemployment and currently on a Bronze plan, it makes sense to now switch to a Silver plan due to the cost sharing reductions. Agree? It would mean losing the ability to put money into an HSA, but the much lower OOP max seems to make this make sense.<br/> <br/> Any re...

Hayden

This factsheet from CMS provides useful information on how health insurance premium tax credits will work, but it does not address cost-sharing reductions. Anyone have details on how cost-sharing reductions will work for people who receive unemployment in 2021? https://www.cms.gov/newsroom/fact-shee...

I'm not sure if it's in the TT interview but I clicked View/Forms (top menu), then selected "Form 1120S p3-5" in the left panel, scrolled down to 16b and entered it. It did end up on the K-1 on line 16 with code B which seems correct to me. I did this and my tax return is correct. But TT ...

I use KeePass for my password manager. I turn on 2FA everywhere that offers it. Having them text you a code is definitely better than nothing, but it is not as secure as using an Authenticator app. There are lots of these, and different websites use different authenticator apps. So I have a bunch of...

When I came to the realization that I have more money than I need, for the rest of my life, in bonds, I decided to stop buying bonds. All new money goes to stocks. I believe they call this a rising equity glide path.

We did something like this and loved it. Biggest issues for us were health insurance and mail. Sounds like with new technology mail is no longer a big challenge. Health insurance is still a problem. I purchased an ACA plan, which meant i was out of network when I was outside of my home county. I bou...

West valley, e.g., Surprise. Close to shopping, hiking, everything one needs. Lower price than the east.

Need a bit more info.... Maybe you don't need to do anything; they just hire you to do a job and at the end of the year they issue a 1099 under your SSN. Maybe you need to get insurance, licenses, etc. Sometimes companies don't want to hire individuals, they want to hire companies, in which case you...

I've had the same message for the past month. Just checked today and now the message is gone.
But, it does not show the payment made on 1/13. I used EFTPS, and the payment left my bank account. But still not reflected on the IRS website.

Hayden

I just did my 1120S in TurboTax Business and was able to easily generate the Shareholder Basis Statement by going into Forms. So at least that part was simple.

I guess I will attach it to my 1040 and mail in a paper copy. bother.

I use TurboTax Business to file the Form 1120S for my S Corp. I'm trying to figure out where to report the $1000 EIDL Advance (this is a grant, not a loan). I think it belongs on line 16b of the 1120S (other tax-exempt income). I've gone through the entire questionnaire, and it never gave me an opti...

I wear Scarpa. They fit my feet. I recommend going to a store where you can get fitted.

I use TurboTax. Turbotax knows I have a distribution because I have entered all of the numbers on my K-1. I wonder whether TT has fixed this for 2020? On the question of basis, it seems to me that for a very simple SCorp with one owner (no loans or liabilities), I would think that the basis at the e...

This is a great thread, and something I personally wrestle with.

To thwart identity theft everyone should (in no particular order): turn on 2 factor authentication for everything; freeze their credit with all 5 credit bureas: Equifax, TransUnion, Experian, Innovis, ChexSystems; sign up for the free credit monitoring (be careful they also have paid ones) offered ...

Back to the target, I rebalance to maintain my AA.

Congratulations! I did not have such fortitude last March.

Is this necessary? Or are they just trying to sell me something? The examples I'm familiar with offer almost nothing -- maybe screen for specific use of your SSN on a predetermined websites. They also offer no actual recourse or financial remedy. I think any third-party service that you pay for, ev...

Any non-taxable income for an S corp, would be reported on line 5 of schedule M-1, income recorded on books not reported on schedule K lines 1-10 to reconcile book income with income on the return. The bill has not been signed & cannot be discussed yet. I want to make sure I understand. The new...

When Covid started i decided to watch Star Trek. All of them. There are a lot. I'm up to Enterprise.

Based on the recommendations here, I'll watch Mandalorian when I finish.

I believe the end date you list is the date your assets were 0. So, wait until the assets are removed from the account, and then list that date as the end date.

i think you will also want to check the box for short plan year

I'm no expert, but I would leave off 3B in your case. This thread was short, so there are just a handful of us following it.

I have an LLC taxed as an S Corp with a solo 401k. Fidelity told me I must close the account before I close the business. It is not possible to close the business and keep the account open, according to Fidelity.
