If you have a side hustle where you make more than $400 a month you have to pay a self- employment tax. The IRS can now figure what YOU report as earnings and what the third parties report. If those numbers don't jive a computer...

I am being held captive

Heather Echola @GardenGerty (169479) • United States 1 May

Yes, that is right, I am being held captive by the phone. The fiscal associate for my employment to be Bob's carer called me yesterday. There is a certain thing that is needed that they cannot get, without a letter from the IRS...

Stacey @xstitcher (39038) • Petaluma, California 16 Apr 24

About a 21-minute walk that included going to get the mail, such as it was. I got something from guys wanting to cut/trim trees I don't have, an ad for a dentist, people wanting money I don't have, and a letter from the IRS...

Not too much going on here. Our housekeeper finally came on Tuesday. It's been running 3-4 weeks between visits because she's so busy with her real estate career. Yesterday I spent quite a bit of time working on the taxes. I...

Don't Call the IRS!!

LindaOH @LindaOHio (222534) • United States 3 Dec 21

Because we just sold our rental home (Thank God), we will have to pay taxes on the proceeds. Accounting for the sale is quite a complicated task and requires at least 3 separate tax forms. Yesterday I called the IRS (Internal...

Update 9/6/21

LindaOH @LindaOHio (222534) • United States 6 Sep 21

Finally, after 6 months, we received our refund from the IRS (Internal Revenue Service) for our 1040-X Amended Tax Return. The amount was about $3 more; so it looked like they paid us interest. I received a coupon via email for...

No Refund From the IRS

LindaOH @LindaOHio (222534) • United States 9 Aug 21

I filed our taxes as usual with the IRS (Internal Revenue Service) back in February and quickly received our refund via direct deposit. After filing, I received another 1099 (a report of income) and had to file an Amended Tax...

People don't want to work anymore...

Teresa Trotter @teresatrotter (4073) • Jacksonville, Florida 27 Jun 21

It is quite evident that the stimulus money has hurt businesses. I went by Subway that is normally open today. There was a note that said: "due to not having enough employees, they had to start closing on Sundays." They said to...

My taxes are filed!

Kelli M @spiderdust (14756) • San Jose, California 17 May 21

That's a relief off of my mind. My refund is not too shabby and I hope it comes in time for me to use it while visiting my dad on the other side of the country. The site I use to file my taxes each year was a little less...

Have you filed your taxes yet?

Stephannie @stephcjh (38473) • United States 2 Mar 21

We filed our taxes about 2 weeks before the IRS actually was accepting them. As soon as the IRS accepted it, we got our Federal refund in the bank in just a few days. Still waiting on my state taxes though. Those were accepted...

Okay, Now I'll Get the Stimulus Check

Valerie J. Routhieaux @just4him (323168) • Green Bay, Wisconsin 25 Apr 20

I never would have received it. I went onto the site that says check your pay and entered my information. They didn't know anything about me. I found that strange, but I haven't filed taxes since I retired. I figured that...

Blessing in disguise

angelwithkids @angelwithkids (1256) • United States 13 Apr 20

Here in the US, we've been listening to the Representatives in D.C. talk about the stimulus deposits. Mostly keeping us in the dark about when we'll start seeing deposits. All weekend I've been trying to figure out how to come up...

I expected this one: tax deadline extended in US

The Horse @TheHorse (238325) • Walnut Creek, California 20 Mar 20

A few days ago, I told a friend that I assumed the IRS would extend our tax deadline beyond the usual April 15. This morning I was "proven" right: the IRS has extended the deadline to June 15. This makes sense, as many Americans...

A honest cab driver gets rewarded by the police in California

George B Vieto @Deepizzaguy (122203) • Lake Charles, Louisiana 18 Feb 20

I really like the way that the owner of the Roseville Cab Company Rajbir Singh cares for the welfare for his customer who is an elderly lady of 92 years of age that could have lost her life savings due to her lack of knowledge of...

The Horse has an Insight! (about telephone scams)

The Horse @TheHorse (238325) • Walnut Creek, California 5 Dec 19

I'm on hold with the IRS right now. No biggie--I'm just getting help filling out a form I forgot to send in with my taxes. When I first got through to the IRS (it's an 800 number), I recognized the voice of the menu lady, and a...

DB @dgobucks226 (37621) 14 Jun 19

I have been receiving robo calls from scammers claiming they are with the police department and stating that if I don't call back a warrant will be issued for my arrest. I never called the number because an automated message...

I'm being held hostage by the IRS.

The Horse @TheHorse (238325) • Walnut Creek, California 14 May 19

Most people dread getting a letter from the IRS, and I am no different. But in this case, it appears I'm due for some sort of refund IF I can fill out two forms I've never heard of. I called the assistance number number and got...

They are Coming for Me

Jo Ann @akalinus (44366) • United States 10 Jan 19

I got a message from the IRS on my phone yesterday. I am guilty of tax evasion and fraud. If I don't call the number, it proves that I am guilty and they will come for me. I deleted the message. Should I be afraid? What kind...
