How did you pay? PayPal or credit card? Contact either and explain your situation that the merchandise was damaged, returned, and the vendor won't refund or talk to you. PayPal or your credit card company will contact the vendor and if not satisfied with their response will issue you a credit...

Unless this was an investment home the loss is not deductible. Only capital gains are reportable and not a loss on your homestead. You might have a deduction claim by claiming vandalism damages. You could potentially claim the loss of value to the mobile home due to the vandalism and thus the...

Lets see if I understand this correctly. You sold your mobile home in a private sale. The new owner abandoned the home. The mobile home's title was never transferred to the new owner because it has a lien attached to it. Apparently, you are not aware of a lien. Do you recall ever being...

Granted, I'm not an attorney either and I'm looking at it from the angle of my profession as an accountant.

Patricia, On what legal basis would the employee be obligated to repay? If the employer sued what would he tell the judge? The employee did not ASK for the employer to pay for the affiliation dues. Thus I would see the judge asking, "why did you (the employer) pay for the dues?" The only...

The above was the original question. The owner has no right to deduct this from her vacation pay and it would be illegal if he tried without her permission. Her recourse is to either reimburse the owner or not. My belief is that she has NO legal obligation to reimburse the owner. The benefit...

I ask then, why do the companies pay for it unless it is for their benefit too? If they pay for it as an employee benefit to attract and retain employees, then it is indirectly a benefit for the company. And again, we are back to it is a "Cost of doing business".

cbg: It doesn't directly, yet the affiliation dues were probably paid for as an annual membership. Perhaps the employee did not need or want the affiliation after leaving the employment. She should not be required to pay for the remainder of the membership term unless she wishes to. If the...

Patricia, Not knowing the facts, we are making assumptions here. I would assume the affiliation dues and the malpractice insurance paid by the Vet Practice were requirements which benefited the Vet Practice. The Vet Practice probably said to the new associate, "if you want to work here you...

If the class action settlement is comprised of punitive damages, then this would be taxable to you. If the class action settlement is comprised only of the return of inappropriate fees, then it would not be taxable. Thus it depends on the character of the settlement.

How do you know and what proof do you have that this company was given your personal banking info by the credit card representative? Only if you can prove that this representative freely gave privileged information without your consent, a court order, or an IRS order.

After reading your post twice, I see that you signed a seller's listing contract and then had it terminated. You said the Broker agreed to the termination. Thus I'd say you and the Broker have no further legal relationship. Thus, simply advise your builder that you have NO procuring agent...

How is affiliation dues any different from continuing education seminars that a business pays for? The Vet could have sent her to a $2,500 seminar last month and now she resigns. She would not be expected to reimburse the Vet! That is the cost of doing business. Unless there was a legal...

Not the most pleasant thing to say to people who you have requested help from. Then, why did you interview for it? The hostile and cocky attitude you are displaying within your posts may have contributed to your feelings about the interview. The questions you mentioned are not out of line...

As neednow has stated, it was "according" to the company accountant that the info was being requested. No direct request to the employee was made by the IRS. If and ONLY if the accountant can show that the IRS did indeed request this info should neednow comply. Then he should ONLY provide...

Suing for such a small amount is not equitable. The filing fee alone in my area is $90. Even if you win, you are not guaranteed payment. It would be totally up to you to collect on the judgement. My advise would be to do your best to mediate with the breeder. Should the breeder be able to...

Congratulations. I assume you were in the First Step Choices program? I also assume you are an adult. Expungement is usually for first time offenses and non-violent crimes. Your best bet is to consult a local attorney versed in expungement procedure. Best of luck. It sounds that the system...

I would not give your company's accountant a copy of your personal tax return. Apparently the IRS is simply trying to verify that the W-2s provided to the IRS by your company match the W-2s given to the employees. This can be done without divulging your entire 1040 to your employer. Being...

Depending on whether you need the expense deduction, you may consider to treat the payment to this individual as a personal gift (non-business expense). This individual would have to agree to the situation and not be the type of person to run to the authorities. Is the aggravation of...
