Serving Over 20,000 US Medical Transcriptionists

if you made less than 600 dollars they don't legally have to claim it.

In Reply to: 1099 form? I did IC work for an MT company a few months (smsg) - me

Just found that out also as last year my IC job only started in October and didn't make enough for taxes. This year will be different though. My employer said consider it free money. Can't argue with that. Checked with H&R Block and they confirmed it.

But they came here LEGALLY, and actually
WORSE like this particular group is doing. Ever driven down a street of apartments that has gone Mexican? It's TRASHED.
I would go after him legally sm
if I had to in order to get my money and have that report changed. That could very well affect you in the future. These doctors. The longer I do this the more I hate Western medicine.
Not much to offer, but legally I don't even
think his mother could get his $ before you, his wife. Something sounds fightable there. Sounds like your hubby has a lot of growing up to do. When a guy marries, he should lessen the relationship with his mom, and transfer his love, attention, devotion, loyalty to his wife. As long as his parents are willing participants, doesn't sound like you have much of a chance. I had been in a vaguely similar situation - my husband's controlling parents were ruining our marriage - they actually wanted us to divorce due to their own control issues. We separated, I moved to the other end of the state. My husband quickly followed, and once out of his parents' WEB, we were able to focus on our marriage, and he was able to see the negative influence of his parents. I'm sorry you're going thru this. PLEASE keep us posted!
Legally they have no right to ask you - just give
...
Legally they cannot pay below minimum
wage. Anyone making below that should check with their state government and make sure that if they do not make minimum wage that this is rectified. Even at the Q, they have to make up the difference to minimum wage.
Not true. You CAN legally use ULD for transcription. There are several sm
options out there including Comcast, Vonage, AT&T Small Business Advantage and more. If you do your research and stop spouting without checking your facts, then people would not chase their tails after bad information.
two jobs in one company, is it legally possible? sm

is it possible to work in a company with two jobs at different shifts?  like for example, I work as a Transcriptionist in the surgery dept and then there's an opening for a different position in a different department.  can i apply for that job without jeopardizing the other?  Can they accept me if I applied for that job?  need advices.  thanks a lot! 


Legally working at home

In some places it is still technically illegal to work at home.  If there is a strong union presence, that may be the case because they want to prevent non-unionized piecework jobs.  They equate it, rightly or wrongly, with sweatshop labor.


In some places, you will have to go before the town planning commission and notify all neighbors within a certain radius of what your business is, especially in terms of noise, smells and traffic.  In essence, you will be asking for a change in zoning. 


If you live in a condo complex, check your covenants/bylaws to see if you can work at home.


So, yes, I would start with city hall if I lived in an incorporated area or with the county clerk if I lived in an unincorporated area.  It is different everywhere, and some places really haven't come into the electronic age.  Some of the laws still on the books belong more to 1907 than to 2007.


In my area, I don't remember the business license costing anything (although I suspect it did - I can't image the county not looking for money), but I remember I had to have a *doing business as* notice printed for 3 consecutive weeks in the local paper.  That wasn't expensive either - they had a set fee for it.


No he doesn't. Believe what you want, the truth will come out legally.
g
Zero. If I don't have the dollars, I don't buy it.
House paid off.  Drive old cars.  Make hard choices sometimes, but would rather postpone or do without sometimes for the peace of mind of no debt.  It's not easy, but I highly recommend it!!
TWO dollars?
Just say NO! That is the most ridiculous thing I have heard in weeks. Ortho fills up a lot of the page and I can't believe I am seeing this. Are you living in another country?
And you are willing to pay 100 dollars
to keep the ball rolling?  I don't know... sounds fishy!
Cannot legally share - software pirating
No, the BOS is copyrighted intellectual property.  If you make copies to hand out for free, then that is software piracy (fancy digital way of saying stealing).  This is why Medquist Technical will want to verify that you have removed the download from your personal computer if you use one rather than one that belongs to Medquist and will be returned to them when you quit.  Medquist bought licenses to enable that so-called free download for employees.  By that I mean that just because the employees didn't pay for it does not mean that it was really free for the company. 
Betsy - used to be my name till I legally changed to Elizabeth.

Christina, I would not send voice files unless they legally
belong to you and are in your voice. It is against HIPAA regulations to share medical files. If the hospital or physician or company finds out, you would be held accountable if a patient's private information is given out to another party.
Another poll: Regarding our tax dollars.

In view of the increased cost of gasoline, housing, medical care, now heating and electric, when it comes to the tax dollars coming from YOUR income, would you prefer it go to:


A.)  Those on welfare due to bad choices, those on welfare because they refuse to work, those on welfare due to unwed pregnancy, or those receiving governmental aid due to just being elderly and unable to  work, or due to catastrophic illnesses or events such as Katrina.


or


B.) Those elected officials to use for their wives' tummy tucks, their children's daycare, their expensively catered business meetings with other elected officials (including water at $500 a case), their tax-funded trips with their families as "staff", and their million-dollar tax-funded pensions.


I did spend the 400 dollars too
Well, what can I say I just purchased the "software" two days ago.
And in the country I live 400 dollars is two minimun wages.-
So, I basically spent my savings in a promise, but only because I read that Alan is a minister of some kind, I just assumed a Pastor wouldn't be on the internet scaming people...
and I even talked to Alan.
Yes, I tip. Usually a couple of dollars but
if I have a lot of groceries, will make it $3.  But last year on Christmas Eve when I had LOTS of groceries and the store was packed and it was pouring down rain and the sacker got soaked loading my groceries in my car, I gave him $5.
Robotype 3. It's about 8 dollars. nm

Yeah, I would rather my tax dollars go to war. nm

It's probably 40,000 Rupees, not dollars.

dollars and cents
I get 6 cents a line for my work, but I work at MQ and am not an IC.  I have been with them for 1.5 years.  I was wondering myself what they got paid because I was considering getting a part time-full time gig for a second job.  Now a days you almost have to.
ME TOO! I got mine for 4 dollars sm
on ebay. I am also down to my last one!
No wonder they claim they want to (sm)
make us happy!! We are making them REAL happy!!
I did not say not to claim it

I did not advise her not to claim it, she can do what she wants.  A company can expense out without filing a 1099.  I have expensed out without doing 1099's before and have never been questioned by the IRS.  In fact you have to notify the IRS that you will be filing 1099's.  Do all hairdressers report all of their "cash" tips?   I suppose you could do 1000 jobs at $500 each to make your 50K per year and not claim it but I doubt that you could find that many jobs.   All we are talking about here is one job and that is what I based my answer on not the hypothetical "thousands of jobs under $500".  I doubt that the amount she made would change her "owed taxes" except for social security and even then not that much.  Sp again -- she needs to do what she feels is the correct thing to do and if she loses sleep over not reporting a couple of hundred dollars then report it but do not expect a 1099. 


Today is different and you cannot fight companies who LEGALLY can offshore work.
So all Americans refuse to buy goods, shop at stores, or work for companies who offshore.  That leaves a mess.  Do you realize a lot of American companies are actually owned by foreigners?  Get real and move into 2005.  You are going to spend a lot of time boycotting once you do the research.  I doubt you will be able to shop or work at all.
Not legally. In my state they can't give any meds, can hand the pill

bottle to the patient, but can't actually give them meds. 


Maybe you are thinking of CRNA? 


I'm already legally blind and I think all this staring at a screen is making them worse! sm

I'll look into these computer glasses you speak of.  Wearing glasses rather than contacts really did help.. I don't know how or why, but it did.  Maybe the combination of antiglare screen and antiglare lenses? 


My monitor's screen is supposed to be antiglare, but I still am thinking one of the antiglare hook-ons might be helpful.  Only problem with that is I have an 'old fashioned' monitors (the kind that are huge and weigh a ton) and not one of the flat screens so not sure if I'll find one to fit. 


Canadian Dollars- probably French ESL nm

Yes, every other week, 78 dollars, 2200 sq ft. SM
To me it's worth every penny!
Were you playing dimes, dollars, or what ?
Am going in the next couple of months, and how much had you spent in machines?
That averages out to 21 to 25 dollars an hour

for radiology.  I earn more than that per hour on acute care, but I don't work that many hours a week.  How do you keep your arms healthy?


 


 


At 3cpl, that's only 90 dollars gross. Take out

Those who claim to have so much compassion....

say so only to make themselves feel superior.  You think you're better because you say what you say.   But how much do you do?  When Bush cut taxes, did you feel  so strongly that it was a mistake that you insisted to continue to send in the former higher Clinton taxes?  Or do you think that only those horrid selfish "rich" people should pay?  Sounds bites and lip service. 


claim was denied.
esd said that i was not laid off because of no work so that i could not claim. you have to be laid off because of no work or company shut down (like for inventory, etc.).

no dice. :(
I have my DH claim 0 and single, but we also have
extra $$ taken out of his check.   We have been hit with a penalty of under $60.00 the past 2 years for not having enough taken out for state though.   Hopefully this year we have taken out enough.  
New studies claim..sm..
cell phones are perfectly safe to use in non-clinical areas, such as waiting rooms and hallways.  Just Google hospitals "cell phones".  Tons of info.
At Wal-Mart here, they start at 6.00 dollars an hour.

I'd bet dollars to donuts it'll be a rip-off, no doubt. - nm

Sheri, can you at least file a claim
for the automatic $100 of insurance UPS has? I know it won't help immediately, but perhaps you can recover something.
There are scam emails that claim to come from
Gotta be careful.
You claim it in 2009. If you did not receive
it in 2008, it does not matter it was owed, only what you received in the calendar year.
I'm afraid I'd have to see the evidence for that claim. sm
It would really take all the planets being lined up to see that kind of average production among that many people.
Don't let him stiff you for the $ -- file a claim

i made $15/hr before and didn't stay long because i made so much more on production. sm
that was with full benes too. i wouldn't do it for less than $20, but i think even with $20, i'd want benes. are you in-house?
In some states, if buying house and married, both names are legally required to be on deed. (nm)

You are KIDDING? In a city where a 1bdrm condo is 300,000 dollars?

Sure, eScription clients are saving a million dollars by

The worst? pretty wide claim.

Seems like you're over-reacting to something that you claim not to care about.

If you paid with Paypal you can file a claim with them, just do it before

30 days is up.   If you paid via credit card you can file a claim with the credit card company, even if you paid via Paypal with a credit card.   You can also file a fraud charge with the U.S. postal service if the item went through them.    With the post office it would take a while to get your money though.   You can also notify the police in her state/county, though most likely they will take a report and that is it, unless this is a habitual thing and others have complained.  


Hopefully the administrator will be able to help you.
