So are they still the Chefs or did they earn their "i" back by making the playoffs?
Anyone heard from DinK in a while?
You gotta have all your 1099's and W-2's first before you can itemize. Companies don't have to send them out till the end of January... and maybe a few days later. Not sure of the exact date, and then you have to wait for the Post Office to deliver them to you.
From what little I know about it, there is no connection between the arrival of your 1099 and W-2 forms and itemizing your expenses. In fact, the only reason I see for waiting for those forms is being sure your information is correct. That assurance is probably available on line in most cases. All of mine is.
I haven't submitted those forms for years, since I file electronically. That trumps the need to submit 1099 and W-2 forms. As long as I can do it without a fee I file electronically. Unfortunately, a fee is charged in North Carolina, so I pay first class postage, and mail it in.
This time around, most of us are probably going to be under-withheld since withholding rates were moved downward for most of the year. I'll have to pay a bit more than usual, but I set withholding rates and estimated tax payments as low as possible to preclude refunds while avoiding any payment penalties. I will not file until the last moment, regardless. I will install my Turbo Tax software in March to be sure I have all of the updates. There will be too much hoops to watch then, so I'll chill until the Final four is over. Then in the next week I'll spend one evening to do my duty, and pay my taxes.http://crazietalk.net/ourhouse/image...gs/waveusa.gifhttp://crazietalk.net/ourhouse/images/smilies/41.gif
The IRS is reprogramming their system due to the tax law passed in December. Therefore, even if you have received all of your Forms 1099, W-2, and 1098, if you itemize, the IRS isn't accepting/processing returns that are affected by the tax changes until the reprogramming is done, sometime mid-February.
That's what I heard. Why the heck is it taking them so long to reprogram their computers? Maybe I'm naive, but it doesn't seem like it should take over a month to reprogram.
I may go ahead and have them prepared and hit "send" once the IRS finishes whatever the heck it is they're doing. I'll check for updates before I do so, of course.
Well, Congress didn't pass the tax changes until late December, so it's reasonable to take at least a month to a) understand the impact/what needs to change, b) code the changes, and c) (most important step) TEST THE CHANGES. I'd argue that's not a heck of a lot of time.
Looks like Valentine's Day will be the day for itemizers.
