Self employed and make sure your tax "net" is low as possible, visit your nearest Blue Cross office and much better. We're in that process now with Arron. Medicare? Shitty. 42 pages via fax to the DHS then snail mail to them yesterday as backup. Strange to me how lazy "house whores" can sit home with 2 kids while boyfriend works up here with me making not much and SHE gets $7400 back on her no-working-a$$ tax return. I'm so mad at that I can scream right now. "They" do not have to provide a year's worth of bank statements, nor maintain a trust fund, nor do they have to manage on $40 per month and give up all assets, have to do with Medicare/Medicaid and STILL have to have $187.10 held out of their check per month for a Blue Cross supplemental insurance policy I could go on and on. anyway - THAT end of the paperwork is done for the first round, we now wait to see if I did it allright. Also go the taxes done last night. I nearly shit. $2000 more I owe this year than last. My 'expenses' were less she said, my phone bill went down $1000 this year and so did a couple of other things so we were scrambling to find things to make up for it and get that gap successfully closed. x On the other hand - this is where the government screws you - MATT TAKE NOTE - if you are any sort of tradesman such as a mechanic, fireman, EMT, police officer, electrician, and get a normal paycheck, but do itemize - BEWARE. The tools and equipment that you previously purchased from your own pocket that you were allowed to claim on your Federal taxes - you NO LONGER CAN. You can claim them on state (Arkansas anyway) but NOT FEDERAL. This killed Arron as he had $5,000 of tools and equipment that he is simply "out". He's about to purchase nearly a grand of diagnostic tools that will end up being claimed by me as "computer equipment" next year and we will now use whatever we can on mine including his clothing he purchases for himself. I voted for Trump but he can kiss it on this one. The hardest working bunch of Americans he royally screwed here. |
