They have to report the 1099s they distribute.

I personally have great disdain for tax evaders, which is what you are if you don't report your income.

I pay my taxes and report all of my income fairly and accurately. Those who don't are commiting a criminal act against me as a taxpayer and against the government.

Sending your 1099 in a black envelope would be a protective measure, prevening others from easily viewing information through the envelope. Not quite as underhanded as you seem to want to believe. :)

1099
Yeah, I know about the 1099C, etc. That would still not be as bad as the whole $14,000 amount that it is up to now (with interest and court costs). Combined, my husband and I took home approx $40,000 last year, so our taxes are not bad anyway. This debt is in my name only though. I have never been to court before, so I am just nervous aobut the actual procedure that happens when I am there. I did call my old lawyer for advice, and he actually told me not to get a lawyer if I am trying to claim that I can't afford to pay, because in theory if I can pay for a lawyer, I could pay for the debt, as the court would see it.
Seriously, no law. You dont turn 1099 into the IRS.

If co. doesnt send 1099, you must rely on your own

I just received a 1099 today, please see message, i have a question

This company sends my 1099 today and sent it in a BLACK envelope so you can't see the date it was stamped unless you put a flashlight behind the envelope and then you can barely see it.  Obviously this is late and is only for $310.  Do I have to show this to my tax guy?  Or is there someone I can get a hold of (BBB) about this?  This company was a joke.  I only worked three days for them (not going into the details).  Anyway, I think they were being very sneaky by sending it in a black envelope. 


Thanks


You never ever put anything in writing
that you would not want others to see. Now with the children being totally out of control, the school is probably being proactive in the discipline of this child- she surely is not being taught much from her home. I think the school probably is doing the right thing, maybe the child will not be so apt to post bad remarks about the next person.
Get everything in writing. sm

Any challenge of the validity of the debt must be in writing.  Send it certified.  Did you receive anything in writing from them?  By law they must send something in writing 5 days after the first phone call.  If they do happen to sue, show up in court or they will get a default judgment.  You can, however, ask for validation even in court.  Go to that website I gave you.  You will find tons of information about your rights in dealing with collection agencies.  http://www.debtconsolidationcare.com/


Writing
I used to write all the time; my main focus was on poems/lyrics...I miss writing so much, I haven't done it in a few years because I have MS and I guess I have sort of given up yet the words are still inside; just a bit more difficult to get them out. I miss it so much - any tips you could offer me...I still have my MT gig but that gets a little hard too but i am still trying...
EVERYTHING in writing.
Start a journal & in it document every sniffle, every cough, every trip to the doctor or the pharmacy, every sleepless night, every lost hour of work, time & date & duration of mold smell. Requests to fix the problem have to be in writing. Mail them certified & get receipts. Conversations with the landlord: After they happen, write down word for word what was said, time, date.

If you have to resort to legal action to break the lease, you MUST have everything in writing. I suggest you get a book on tenant rights from Nolo Press or visit a lawyer NOW so that s/he can help you plan this out.
You could ask them for your reports and
upon reading them make a decision as to whether you think it is "more" on a benign side. I ask for copies of all lab work, path reports, MRIs, whatever and I keep up with them to know for myself about diagnosis, are my labs in range, etc. Maybe seeing the report and reading it will help you make a better decision.
Sad reports sm
I have worked on many cases which were extremely sad. I was always a very caring person and when I started transcribing some of these sad cases, I wanted to quit. My supervisor said, "You can't get involved." I thought she was a horrible person. After many years and many sad stories, I found I got hardened but not without telling myself that I was actually helping the patient by giving them an accurate, caring record to accompany them on whatever journey they took.After becoming an independent contractor, I also worked on oncology for years when pick up and delivery were part of the scenario. I saw beautiful people disintegrate before my eyes and die. One was a beautiful young woman who got married during her treatment and died. When my own younger sister was diagnosed with lung cancer, I was able to answer some of her questions to the best of my ability, talk about her funeral, etc., as she only had 18 months. Years ago, I would probably have had a breakdown just at the news. Did I become, "hard hearted?" No! But I matured in some strange way. My hubby in later years took over some of my deliveries to the oncologist and could not tolerate seeing patients in the waiting room. It was only then that I realized how I had grown and matured. I am sure some of my family wondered why I did not turn into a crying machine at family funerals, etc. What I did do was have the ability to go to the funeral home, arrange for burials, funerals, etc., in a professional manner. I do not understand it myself, as I was always a crier. I just have to tell myself that I have graduated, matured and have gotten to the point where I can help others without falling apart. Who knew?? I think I have been given a gift and my responsibility is to carry on with grace and dignity. I call it "grace in the bank." Never thought I would see the day when I could handle my own bad news, i.e., "You have cancer, you have breast cancer and that breast has to come off!" (My answer: "When?" Doc: "Last week.") My action - 2nd and 3rd opinions. Outcome - I kept my breast, was told by 2nd and 3rd opinions that after tumor board consults, there was only a question of cancer, DCIS changed to atypical cells. Seven years later, I am still here, no sign of cancer, no mastectomy,no drugs or radiation -- just atypia. Since then, watchful waiting and 6 month visits. How did all this come about? Maturity, just mature decisions and a clear head. So hang in there. Whatever doesn't kill you makes you stronger (and wiser). True story. DO NOT ignore your breasts or any other part of your body, but be a consumer in health care. You would not buy the first car you see on the lot. The maturity and wisdom you will gain will help you and your family in the future. You will be stronger, wiser and a help to everyone if you can overcome the emotion. One of my saddest cases - a psychiatrist had to testify in writing her decision to recommend taking away custody of a child from two retarded people who had married and conceived a child. They were not taking proper care of her through no fault of their own. She was crying while she dictated and so was I. Life is not easy. Just remember you are in the "helping profession" and if you don't pat yourself on the back for doing a great job, I will! Don't take it personally, just do your best job ever and the patient will benefit from your perfect medical record. Manage that stress now; it will pay you back in the future. Hang in there.
I do op reports - sm
I had only been with this account for two weeks or so, and I wish now I had known how to save it for myself. The doc was describing, I think, a laparoscopic cholecystectomy. Somehow, he says, the CO2 line got hooked up to helium and after insufflating the patient's abdomen, the patient began to rise up off of the operating table, and they eventually had to have step stools brought in to be able to reach the patient to complete the operation (I was wondering why they didn't just tie the patient down!). Anyway, the operation finished, the abdomen was deflated, the patient sank back down to the table and the surgeon closed and the patient went to the recovery room in stable condition. Something seemed a little hinky about the whole thing and I notified the transcription supervisor. The date on the report? April 1, 2003.
I find the writing fantastic.
I get very annoyed with writers who have no writing skills. My hubby insisted I read a book a while back that was getting all these raves - the one they made a movie with Tom Hanks, and it was all about art and Rome and theories about Biblical history - I can't remember the name. That writer needs to walk the plank IMO. After one chapter I was livid that anybody would publish such a horrible writer, LOL. His vocabularly consists of about 100 words, for one thing.
The writing is on the wall, so to speak
You make a difference in the g'parents- your children are picking up on this. I had a similar thing going on with my son- my mother did all the loving, fun things he wanted- my father (they were divorced, each remarried) was strict, no fun to be around, hardworking but I believed in their being able to share and I did. Both are deceased now and I do not regret having him spend as much time with 1 as the other. Oh, BTW, one of my most enjoyable things as a child was when I spent time with my father and his wife- they had a small garden and I absolutely loved to dig up the potatoes- used to beg to get to do it. You should have a good talk with everyone and insist spending time with all- don’t let your feelings play into their hesitancy on going. Grandparents are not always right but she wants to have some time with them. Not all g'parents want to be bothered with kids, believe it or not.
I believe I was talking about the style of your writing.
Stay on task, please.

Well, writing this after the episode was shown.
Doubt we will see Callie and McSteamy but Merideth better get over that thing she has not dealing with her life with mom or she may lose her man.  Drives me nuts, let it go already, get over it, move on.  Liking the new doc Yang has her eyes on more every episode.  Gosh, we all sound like this is really a functional and actual hospital setting;-)
It was Consumer Reports who said it, actually, LOL
I'm not a bagless fan because I don't want to go outside every time I dump my vacuum cleaner. I don't see how to control loose dry material when you remove it from the cannister. I don't want to reach in there, and it seems like just dumping it into a trash can would cause clouds of dust to rise. Just my thoughts on it, but it was Consumer Reports who didn't think Dyson or any other bagless was the best for pet hair.
yes, they might charge you a bit for reports...sm
but is always worth it to have them.........*S*.....my friend in Florida just had a cardiac catheterization and wanted his reports, and they charged him $11 for them DIRECTLY after the procedure...*sheesh* - cannot believe it......
Not what the reports are saying. They're
saying the highest numbers are in 'healthy' young adults and that's one of the signs of a pandemic.
Been watching reports on TV all day on this.

Sounds really scary.  The worst and most alarming report as the worry about spread through the folks traveling to work on the subway systems and public transportation.  The last report by Dr. OZ was that they would know more by Friday and be updating things then.  Have a local hospital here in town reporting one case and waiting for test results. 


One report said if things get really severe, they will close businesses and doggone it all - we work from home, will still be working, and bet the ERs and hospitals will have more reports than ever. 


I used to type ER reports.
They were quite, um, interesting. Lots of strange occurrences that increased around the time of the full moon each month. I had one doctor trying to dictate a drunk/drugged patient with foreign object removal, but he couldn't stop giggling through the entire report. He even apologized for giggling.
You should read what some of the VR/ASR reports
come up with. On the other board someone mentioned that ASR came up with a diagnosis that the patient had HIV, which was never even dictated, and she did not know where it came from. Can you imagine if she had not caught that and deleted it.
Read up on writing etiquette. It is yelling.
It comes across as hateful
Letter or card writing to Iraq sm
Get an address for someone in Iraq and have them all write a letter or draw a picture for them.. All it will cost you is to buy some paper & envelopes and provide a stamp, won't cost much more for material than most projects. There was an address on here and perhaps she will e-mail you. My brother never forgot that my son's class did this for him. At that time the postage was free, not so with this president, I assume. I put postage in mine to Iraq, didn't ask.Dont know what the postage is today - it should be free but I seriously doubt it.Perhaps some parents would donate stamps as well.
Check-writing doesn't bother me
so much as the little old ladies with their frail eyesight and arthritic hands, bless their hearts, digging in their coin purses for the exact change.  It's too bad I'm in such a hurry I can't just admire their independence.

Free credit reports
A lot of people don't know this, but you can get FREE annual printed copies of your credit reports online in seconds from the 3 major credit companies.

There are a lot of online companies out there saying you can only get this information if you pay for it and try to get you to sign up for some type of credit services. Not true.

''This central site allows you to request a free credit file disclosure, commonly called a credit report, once every 12 months from each of the nationwide consumer credit reporting companies: Equifax, Experian and TransUnion''.

www.annualcreditreport.com
is the official site to help consumers to obtain their free credit report.

Hope this helps others : )

But they can say I need xx reports/lines in 24 hours.

Dog killing and mayor involved in letter writing
I am really in a twizzy this morning. Shirley Franklin, city of Atlanta mayor, wrote a letter to the judge involved in the Michael Vick dog fighting/killing asking for leniency as, how she put it, Vick had done a lot for the community and helped folks out. Phooey!!! I hope personally he never is able to return to the Falcons or any other football team. I think whatever he was able to accomplish was blown by the fact that he participated in the killing of dogs. How inhumane is that? I hope PETA gets out and strikes each and every time (if he is rehired by any jackoffs) he is supposed to be playing. Came from the ghetto and I suppose the thug still in him. What a shame. Never made a million in my life and he made mega millions and then threw it all away for ??? I am vexed by her doing such a deed and will send letter stating my feelings.

Poll: short reports or long ones?

which do you prefer?


 


I like short ones myself, I get bored with the long ones.


Funny, the majority of reports I type

Sure are a bunch of them being born with congenital abnormalities that require a lot of surgery and long stays in intensive care!  But of course, let's drive up our own health care costs by pulling out all stops to keep them healthy from birth!  Glad to know MY smoking and eating is causing the crisis (although I pay MY taxes and health care premiums), not free health care to thousands of new illegal aliens every day!


I type pediatric reports all the time, and from what
I've been reading, it can easily happen as early as 8, or as late as 14-15. (I was 13, myself). 10 is a tad young, but certainly not abnormal. If I had a daughter going starting her menses, I'd get her something like "Always", the pads that have sticky wings on them that attach them to underpants. No annoying, visible, uncomfortable belts! She may be a tad young for tampons, but maybe when she's a little older that could be an option too. I just wish they had those stick-on pads when I was a teenager!
sounds phony to me too...great career in fiction writing...nm

Scary reports on Eladil possible side effects, though. (sm)
From FDA website:

Possible risk of cancer: As noted in the Elidel Cream label and patient Medication Guide, although a link has not been made, rare cases of cancer (for example, skin and lymphoma) have been reported in patients who use Elidel Cream. The manufacturer is conducting studies to examine the risk of cancer. These studies may take many years to complete.


I am sure when the clients get professionally transcribed reports and the doctors find our
reports accurate nobody is thinking of pajamas or sweats. The home environment just allows us to be a little more relaxed and take showers, etc. on our own schedule. What in the world does that do to undermine what we know and do?  As far as what others think of our job in a home environment walk a mile in our shoes, or slippers, whatever the case may be.
I think Consumer Reports mentions cameras in the gift issue. See if

I tried a big company, but
I didn't like the rigidity of their plan. You want somebody who is flexible in the cleaning rotation if they rotate their area of concentration. I mean, this company wanted to waste a clean by detailing my office and bedroom and laundry area. Nobody sees those areas, so if I have company coming over, attention needs to be paid to the areas we'll be using, you know? But they had to follow their national plan.

Plus, DH and I didn't appreciate having to spend every other day off preparing for them to come. Some days you want to spend in the yard and let the house go, but when somebody is coming to clean, you need to have picked up so they can vacuum and wipe counters, etc.
Which company did you use? NM

I went with a company...sm
We went with InCharge. The credit cards were out of hand and I was fed up. It took 1-2 months to get everything set up. We pay them $40 a month for their service, but the interest rates were knocked down to 6% so we are still saving bunches of money. We have have all the credit cards paid off in 2 more years. As for working out something with the credit card companies directly, they would not work with us so this is the route we went. Do not regret it at all.
Which company has this.
:
unwanted company
Ditto -- Just don't answer the door.  We moved to the country to get away from that sort of thing and it still happens.  I hate it too.
Just because a company offers 8....
Just because a company offers 8 cpl doesn't mean they won't up that for experience. I was offered 8 and said no and now I get 10 cpl.
For what company? See, that's the thing - I
have tested for numerous companies, and passed with flying colors, then when it comes down to the job offer, they offer me about what I am making now.  That is why I would like to just know what companies out there are paying 10 cpl so I can just bypass all the ones that offer low pay; otherwise, I just see myself wasting my time, taking all these tests and in the end being offered no more than what I'm getting now.  Can anyone out there who makes 10 cpl tell me what company they work for? 
misery and company
I'm not glad that you all suffer too, but a little relieved.  Mine is a little like an electrical hum - white noise came to mind for me also.  I wonder if computer error tones started mine as it happened right after I had a series of bad dictations where I turned the volume up really high and then when I hit something wrong I got a very loud tone - someone has since told me how to change it to a more tolerable sound. 
Actually, I worked for a PC company
a long time ago supervising the commercial aspect. They always tell you that, but they can and do die in walls. We were sent out many times to cut them out after people insisted on using poison.

The best advice that I can offer is that once you get rid of them, you seal off any areas where they can get back in. If you don't do that, then you will continue to have problems.

Now rats instead of mice, I don't know what to tell you to do if they are eating through the walls!

Me personally though, I had a rat as a pet. In fact, we had to put her to sleep about a month ago.
Maybe you should contact the company...
