Wouldn't that be them sending the W2 and/or W4 paperwork to the feds? He said he didn't report some income to the IRS because he didn't get a W2. He'd owe more because of non-reporting penalties, but as others have said, there's more to it than that.

Rhyno posted:I just got my tax penalties mostly dismissed! Original bill was $11,700ish and they cut it down to $3,488! And my now penalty free return will cover 1/3 of that! I'm fighting the same fight. I had a business so had to pay/report quarterly. In 2013 I talked to them and explained I wasn't running a business any more, please remove me from the register of quarterly paying/reporting Business Activity Statement (BAS) and paying GST tax on non existent income since I'm not running a business any more. They did that for last year and withdrew the fines, but didn't remove me from the register/requirement to lodge this year it seems. I'm laughing at $8k in fines this year for the same poo poo when I'm still not running a business and I spoke to them last year and was supposed to be removed from BAS. poo poo just got real though and they want my regular tax returns (like every individual has to produce) for the past couple of years in two weeks. Yeah, you need an accountant for old tax filings and I probably can't afford one. (my last few years had an income of 0, but there's probably a year or more of things I need to write off in the last year of business with expenses and stuff before I shut down mentally and business wise) Fo3 fucked around with this message at 20:08 on Feb 19, 2015 |

One end of a crossmember attaches there and the other end attaches to the frame below the radiator. The transaxle isolators/mounts bolt to that crossmember.

Oh yeah, sorry guys there were other things up with some owed taxes. The W2 mishap has been totally forgiven. Edit: was phone postin' So I sold a ton of poo poo on Amazon in 2011/12 and Amazon reported the items I sold at the full price value ignoring that they take roughly 40%. And since it was poo poo I've been buying over the last 20 years I had no receipts. My caseworker was super sympathetic and since I showed a willingness to pay what I actually owed he got everything, fees penalties and interest dropped down to $3488. If I can pay that off by the end of the year (I can) there will be no additional interest. Rhyno fucked around with this message at 21:30 on Feb 19, 2015 |

Forgot to knock the ice off the roof of my car before I hit the highway, looked in my rearview mirror in time to see a sheet of it lift up, fly backwards off my roof, and hit the highway and explode into a bunch of tiny pieces. Didn't hit anyone else's car and it exploded harmlessly, but I still felt like an rear end in a top hat. I am terrible car stuff

He'd owe more because of non-reporting penalties, but as others have said, there's more to it than that. - the company sent the W2+W4+whatever else to the IRS and somehow it didn't make it to you. They've sent the withheld money to the IRS. - the company didn't send anything to the IRS. So either you owe the difference between the withheld amount and what you actually owe, or you miss out on a refund, either way, not a lot of money involved on $150. Or the company hosed up and they have to do something before you can really do anything anyways. Unless I am completely missing something about how an employer's half of payroll tax handling works. In which case I want to hear how I am wrong because I want to learn here. e: went looking and it doesn't even require that they file unless you made at least 600 there for the year, so the whole thing is probably moot.

Took lots of measuring but wasn't too hard a job. trouser chili fucked around with this message at 03:18 on Feb 20, 2015 |

You say that, but even modern construction crews gently caress up. My house is only about 15 years old but aside from the studs immediately adjacent to any door / window, absolutely nothing is where it should be. Neither 16" or 24". That said, as long as you find a good pair of studs, its no problem. I hung a 60" using a Monoprice mount and it just takes some patience and a second set of hands. A third set of eyes helps too.

Rhyno posted:I just feel real iffy about the mounts I see available. You wouldn't happen to have a brand and/or part number handy? The mount is a Sanus Simplicity SLF5. It was discontinued after a recall. Mine has the recall fix applied. It doesn't get very good reviews (I found out after) but I don't have any complaints about it except that installing the fix from the recall was surprisingly difficult. Tv is Vizio E700i-b3    I like bolting the mount to the template itself just in case I ever want to move it. I won't have lost the template this way. This is my only trick of the trade. Yes I know my wires suck. I'm going after the wiring soon. Going to add a recessed outlet and conduit hole behind the TV, as well as sconces on each side of the TV so we have a bit of light on that wall. Edit: Oh yeah, get yourself to harbor freight and buy a cheap studfinder.

MrChips posted:your cables are triggering me so hard I know, it's terrible. I hate it too but not enough to fix it yet. I have a piano that's going to go under the TV and I'll get the wiring done before then. I wanted to show the range of movement the mount has, so here: Flat against the wall.  I wanted it to go as far to the left as possible so it can been seen from the dining room table. This is all the way over.  If you saw any reflections of me in my underwear, well congrats I guess. I've got two sick barfing kids here and am at the point of giving no fucks now. Here's my other mounted TV. It's a cheapo 32 Walmart special. It's not as small as it looks in the photo.  Being the second TV I ever mounted I actually fit the wiring mostly right.  This one has the recessed receptacle as well as the plenum hole. I stole power from a receptacle on the other side of the wall to wire up the recessed unit. I just need to get up to the attic to run the wire from the big outdoor antenna, until then those ancient rabbit ears I found in the basement work pretty well. Oh and I need to bolt that carbon monoxide detector somewhere permanent. trouser chili fucked around with this message at 04:14 on Feb 20, 2015 |

Did my first pass through my taxes and it looks like I owe the state about $2k and will be getting back $4k from federal so something's messed up. Reeeeaallly appreciate the nut punch on tax credits where it says 'your credits for your children are $600, where they would normally be $1000 but you made too much money'.
