Yes it is, and we do file a joint return BUT you can offset your income - sm
on the schedule C with your expenses (mine are ~$2K) and lower the amount you pay taxes on. This is in addition to your Sch. A/B or the standard deduction.
Look at last year tax return

If you worked last year look at your tax return and see how much taxes you had to pay based on what you made.  Compare wages to this year and if they are about the same you will know how much to withhold or put aside.  If your husband works, have him over withold an extra amount or if you work as an employee at another job have them overwithold.  Be sure to take off your deductions to get your NET income and not your gross.   Good luck. 


Update: I did not get that file clerk job
at the hospital.  They just called and said they choose another applicant.  They said they would like to keep my name on file in case they have another opening though.  Oh well, guess it wasn't meant to be.   It probably would not have paid much anyway. 
Mine are in year-round thank goodness! They've started their new year 2 months ago.

They put out an update every year. Might want to wait for the 2008 version now. nm

I get it. But in return for supporting the small business the poor folk get nothing in return.
I understand why you don't shop at Walmart. You support those who support you but it doesn't work that way for me. I can go to an independent shop and by a dishwasher, pay lots more for it and get nothing in return to supplement my support of their small business. Same for all the poor folk who are shopping in Walmart trying to stretch a paycheck. I am glad Walmart exists for those folks.
I heard this, too. I was going to file early this year
but the IRS won't even be processing them. I think the gubbamint is outta money so they're waiting until they get money in before paying out to the early filers who are expecting refunds.
Mine did last year and believes I could to, if I got up

Mine avg. around $2K a year that is it -- all work via the internet- sm
I cannot see how anyone can write off $10K unless they are fudging things or have a very large office area in a very expensive house with a BIG mortgage---and drive back and forth delivering tapes, print outs, etc. I do not do the mortgage/office deduction so I am sure I could write off another $1K if I did that, but as I don't know when we are moving (planning to one of these days) I don't want the hassle so I just eat that one. As for my write offs I deduct anything remotely used or needed for work, electricity, paper, ink for my printer (print patient lists), my fax service, internet, FTP, any programs/upgrades, virus protection, reference books, any equipment (did my computer a couple years ago), phone line for work, etc. I am sure there is more (i.e. a new desk, chair, etc.). If you use it for work, write if off. --From the sounds of it though your accountant is right.
Slept in a recliner for a year before I got mine....LOVE IT. sm

I have degenerative disk disease in my lumbar and cervical spine.  We got a king sized, fully adjustable because of the level of my problems.  I rarely have had to use the adjustments because having found my "number" I am provided with an incredible night sleep.  My number is 35 and it has changed my life.  I have significantly less pain, I can sleep ALL NIGHT without rolling over and over and over in pain.  Wish I would have gotten it when it first came out.  We have had it for 2 years now.  I recommend it to everyone who asks.


Nope, my hubby picked mine up last year and
hopefully his deductions will clear out mine this year.
Like that's so easy? Divorced bud of mine at 51 graduated college w/her BS last year ...

I've worn mine working for a year and haven't had a problem. .sm
  I even still handle floppy disks all the time.  The magnets aren't that strong.
You need to Ctrl + A, then hit F9 to update all fields. To update header,
you need to switch to print preview and back or print the document.
Rename your normal.dot file to something else then restart Word. It will create a new file.

I think it is the same type of file, so rename it and replace your autocorrect file with your DQS us

Help..I lost my word file. How can I retreive a file that has been changed? sm

I was working on a large file and had saved it in Word. I then went back to work on the file and hit a key that made the page go blank.  When I went to close the document it asked me to save any changes on the document. I answered yes, and now when I click on that document it is all blank! Shouldnt the previous info saved be there, even if the current stuff is not? Please help me!! Thank you


Depends on the file format of the Short Cuts file.
ShortHand comes with a utility file that can import various formats. You can get that file with the trial download of SH.

...with your user.aco file. Save your autocorrect file to somewhere else. nm

You can save the SH file in a text file and import to IT that way. sm
You may have to do some cleanup in the SH text file, but it sure would be faster than re-entering them all manually.
File taxes under the name on file w Social Security....
Name on W2 doesn't have to match, but your tax return has to match SS records. They don't want your marriage license or anything else. Did that for 13 years as instructed by IRS. Didn't have to change it with SS until state changed rules requiring drivers license to match SS records. Still use my maiden name in some limited circumstances.
haha
This is a joke, right?  You endangered your 16--year-old by moving her in with a man, a crazy man at that?  Are you serious?  You obviously need some mental help for child endangerment. 
Haha!

Haha!
Sorry, missed the last part of your post. Just cut her off and stop sending work. When she asks, tell her you didn't think she was interested anymore.
Right?! haha...
Maybe she should just go test if she thinks it is so easy. I bet she would get a rude awakening then.
Haha...well said!
This is only the beginning, not only for MTs...for professionals everywhere.

The other poster had a point though about our elected officials lining their pockets with the money that is being made. Go vote too! Vote for candidates who want jobs to come back to the US and not just ones who say they do, but ones who actually show it. A petition will only go so far. If you want to see change, you have to look even higher.

As far as choosing a different doctor, it is possible even with a limited plan and should be done by all of us.

Good job though...glad someone finally did it. :O)
man, where did the "was" come from haha - sorry! (NM)
xx
Haha! the joke is on me.
I reread my post right after hitting enter and saw I spelled "their" instead of there! It must be getting to me tonight! Sorry!
If I would read, I would know! Haha

HAHA-- LOVED IT!

Ouch! HAHA :)

Haha! Not exactly! Should be rephrased to ask, - nm

Oh the memories! haha nm

Haha! I would love to be able to say this...problem is, it might be taken

haha, getting like feast or famine, right? (nm)

haha - glad you agree
nm
yes, I did catch it;hence the haha you missed it
nm
Probably another "gem" from the AAMT BOS! (haha!) n/m
;D
Haha! That sounds great....
I need to have something to strap my butt in on those days where I get too distracted. :)

I will check that out...thanks.
Haha...I read it once and understood exactly
what she said. She didn't get the face lift.
Hey thanks.. I never did do well in Math in school haha

Haha! My cat watches me, and I think she can read.....
she already knows how to turn on the printer & the fax machine, so who's to say she's not logging on when I'm asleep and sending sensitive information God-knows-where?
haha...Sounds like something my husband would do...
although he is afraid if he gets it done it won't work at all...
Haha - if that's a 'medical exam', we might as well - SM
call our docs from home and just let them transcribe it. Oh wait. Isn't transcribing what WE'RE supposed to do?
Lordy I hope so! haha nm

Return it
Return the thing before your thumbs fall off.

You could try prying off the space bar and cleaning underneath it - maybe something is stuck under there. I have found four-course meals under mine. Otherwise, an exchange or return is probably your best bet.

See Main Board for a discussion on keyboards if you are interested.
I would definitely return it and have them

as an IC how do you get ANY RETURN?
ive been an IC for 10 years and only ONE TIME got a return, which was the bush tax cut of $600.00

I never used to pay quarterleys and would get hit with a huge amount in April... and then two years ago owed like 10K in back taxes, (apparently hadn't paid enough) putting me into credit card debt, which i never had before, so disappointing.

I'd be careful if i were you!

Now I take 30% of EVERY paycheck and pay quarterleys, just not online. i need to figure that one out
LOA with return to job
Your job should be safe. You would be eligible for FMLA at the very least, I think. Nothing works better for what you are describing than time off. I had to take 4 weeks off earlier this year due to an injury, and my mind needed the rest. It is so much better now that I'm back. A mental break never hurt anyone.
