I've been filing a business write-off on my personal taxes. How do I close out the business on my tax return?
Posted by admin in Tax Questions on August 27th, 2010
I am a writer who has filed business write-offs on my personal tax return for 5 years as per the law. I have not made profits in those years. I have been advised by my accountant that tax regulations do not favor my continuing to file business write-off because I have not made a profit so should close out the writing business. How do I go about filing my taxes now? Do I just ignore the past years write offs as thought they were never deductions?

Posted by admin in Tax Questions on August 26th, 2010
www-myoffers.com Suzie Orman talks about tax relief you are entitled to when you sale through a short sale. In the video it is discusses that you do not owe income tax of the loan forgiveness from a primary home bought or improved between the 1st of January 2007 and the 31st of December 2009. She also talks about private mortgage insurance that is paid by those earning under a hundred thousand a year income, this private mortgage insurance is tax deductable. And many more tax breaks are covered. For information on short sales and avoiding foreclosure look at your options at www-myoffers.com
Invested Money in Small Business as Partner - Tax deductions possible?
Posted by admin in Tax Questions on August 21st, 2010
I invested 3K in start-up money with 2 other guys plus spent another 4K in misc. such as travel costs, supplies, etc. and we haven’t taken a salary or any income and are actually barely breaking even. Can I get any tax benefits for my personal income tax by having invested in this business?
Thanks.
LLC is the entity. Will not be changing that. I also live 2 states away and will not be able to just go see a tax pro together with the 2 other partners. The solution will have to be individually solved for each of us. They both have multiple other businesses it is just not going to be us going to see the same personal accountant.
Thanks.
This is about my personal taxes, not the LLC which will be done by the company’s CPA. I will get a K-1 at the end of that process? I also don’t do my own taxes. I’m trying to figure out if a. I can take deductions and b. what I need to give to my accountant to get the deductions and c. what are the questions I should be asking my partners prior to doing my own personal taxes. So far it looks like I should be asking to see a Schedule K-1.

How do I calculate tax deductions?
Posted by admin in Tax Questions on August 20th, 2010
I am interested in learning how to calculate my own tax deductions. I have some, I know that are deductible (i.e. daycare, mileage to and from work, student loans, gas receipts). I would like to find out if there is a way that I can calculate this to see what I might be getting back from taxes. My husband is military and he and I are planning on using his mileage and gas receipts as well.
Thanks.
