When i lived in New York City there were taxes withheld from my paycheck for New York City.
I now live in Chicago.
All through 2009 my paycheck was garnished, not by the federal government though. My AGI is affected by that so in reality I didn’t bring home what my W2 states. Is there a deduction for garnishments?
I used an online tax calculator and it said I qualify for a ,100 earned income tax credit. Is this an amount I actually get from the government or is it a credit I can use against some other sort of tax. I already know I’m getting a refund of the federal tax that was withheld throughout the year from my paycheck, but is this over and above that?
I just wanted to know how much tax in taken out of a paycheck in NY. If I make 0.00 every two weeks. How much tax will it be taken out, without any benefits. I just want to know to see if I can afford paying rent every month.
Recently, my husband and I received a certified letter from the IRS that there was about K in unreported income on our federal tax forms for 2007 resulting in an additional tax liability of K for myself and my husband (who filed jointly that year). I was aware that my husband did earn the income as part of his business earnings and as such he informed me that he paid taxes on the income as part of his business tax filing. I just checked with his business partner and the partner informed to me that my husband also knew of the income but my husband never gave him the 1099 to file as part of the 2007 business tax filing. The question is then this: Can I file (and do you think that I would be granted) a Innocent Spouse Tax Relief claim from the IRS due to my situation. I have a good job and have the maximum in taxes taken out of my paycheck but it always seems that I am supporting my husband’s delinquent tax debt however we have separate finances and I pay most of the household bills.
Sincerely,
Tax Frustrated
Someone I know (yes, it really is someone else) has had tax withheld from his paycheck for the last ten years, but hasn’t filed a return for any of those years. Any advice on what he should do? I told him to go to the IRS and file - but now I’m wondering if I gave him good advice. Should a criminal lawyer handle this?
This guy is looking to clean up his act. He hasn’t made much money, and probably wouldn’t have owed anything if he had just filed the returns when they were due.
NG - Thanks for the detailed response. You make a lot of sense. I agree that proph is out to lunch.
Gary - Couldn’t agree more. "Not too bright." Fortunately, I think we’re going to find that most of the taxes (if not all) were paid. Hopefully, he’ll be able to clean up this mess without a lot of turmoil. Thanks!
Im a 16 year old kid who is applying for my first job. I am wondering, with a minimum wage job, working about 12 hours a week, how much percentage of my paycheck will taken for income tax?
I am payed .50 an hour and work 10 hours a week. My first paycheck comes in on the 1st and I was wondering how much tax will be taken out. I have done research on the internet and haven’t found anything to help me out. I am 16 if that has anything to do with the tax takeout.
Thanks!
I’m 16 and just got my first job, what percentage of my money are taxes going to take out of my first paycheck?
I am a substitute teacher and the district I work for had me fill out a w-9 form. I am wondering if taxes will be taken from each paycheck I receive? If they do not withhold state and federal taxes can I request that they do? I would like to prevent paying out come tax time.
