TurboTax helpfully has sent me my username and ability

[msanthrope]

to reset my password, unasked for. If I were to put my hat in the ring, I could probably put my taxes online within the hour. At least that's what the extremely helpful customer service agent is telling me.

And yes....this means the msanthrope has not done her taxes yet. I'm laying in a supply of food and liquor and will be binge watching Transparent Season 2 whilst doing them.

1. Congrats. You are more competent that one of the Democratic candidates for the presidency.

Seriously, this guy "can't find" his tax returns for months, and he wants to run a country?

[msanthrope]

2. Can I tell you how the customer service agent laughed?

I am not the first wag to call and inquire.....

[DanTex]

3. LOL. That's funny.

[Logical]

4. Lounge? Nt

5. Surely a copy was saved on their computer, after all who wants to continue hunting through

All the paperwork. The work sheets holds lots of information.

6. Right On! Go Bernie!!!

I love me some TurboTaxin' Bernie Sanders!

[RiverLover]

7. Well, hopefully you will do right & not be a tax dodger like the Clintons.

The Clintons share a tax-avoiding Wilmington street address with Google, Coca-Cola, Bank of America, and 280,000 other companies in what must be the world's most crowded office park.

And frankly, the only surprising thing about this information is that anyone would be surprised to learn about it — of COURSE the Clintons are taking advantage of tax loopholes, that's just what rich people do. It's legal.

"Some of you may have just heard about these disclosures about outrageous tax havens," said a political reformer last week. "It's also scandalous how much is actually legal. That's why last year, I proposed a plan to shut down the so-called private tax system for the mega-wealthy."

Who was it that said that? Let me just check my notes here ... oops, it was Hillary Clinton. How weird that so many Americans do not have a favorable opinion of her Delaware shell companies!

10. As a person who has set up corps and LLCs at that particular location

of CT corp......I have no fear.

[Sheepshank]

17. And in DE...where hundred and thousands of corps are set up

they will use a shared address. Its the legal way to establish in DE.

Your post is nothing.

8. Let us hope and expect that the CPA Jane Sanders will avail herself of this

facility and release those tax records post haste.

9. Ahh, the company that lobbies to keep the tax code complicated in order to sell their product.

11. I'm told, via PM....this was alerted on. nt

[msanthrope]

12. Still have not finished my taxes, but making headway. nt

[B Calm]

13. We use to use Turbo-Tax. Then we got a letter from the IRS saying we owed them a lot of money

(thousands) and if we didn't pay by a certain date we would be audited. We called the high school math teacher who does taxes on the side and he looked at the letter and did our taxes for less than what it cost us for Turbo-Tax. We got a refund that year.

[msanthrope]

14. I've had no problems....but I will certainly keep that in mind. nt

[B Calm]

15. The first couple years we had no problems too, but the third yr was a nightmare.

16. In another thread, a Sanders' supporter

called a Hillary supporter OCD for posting too often.

I defended the Hillary supporter, because I am OCD and it's not a laughing matter, and mental health issues should not be used to ridicule anyone.

But I have to tell you, the threads on this forum often tend to look OCD, because they are repeated over and over and over again, ad nauseum.

I'm not accusing only one side of this...we each have our issues, but for christ's sake, can't we limit how many threads we post on one topic?

Geeze this place is nucking futs sometimes.
