Eek! It’s that time of year again. I’m an American living in Soviet Canuckistan, so I have to file in both countries. I just filed my automatic extension form (if it’s automatic, why do I have to file? Hmmm…), because my Canuckistan taxes haven’t yet been filed. But what a complete and total pain to have to file in both countries. At least it’s easier in Canada, especially since I hand everything over to an accountant!
Anyone encountering female horses in the night about their taxes? (Heh) My advice – use your jar as a tax shelter – works for me!

Last night we discovered that the sole “benefit” from being “married/CU filing separately” in New Jersey is that we lose our Homesteader’s Rebate, since our combined income is now too high.
STOP.
Do not proceed past this point.
being self-employed sucks~ so many, many frikkin forms to fill out….
hiring your childrens sucks more, not only do you pay the children a wage, you have to pay taxes on them….and then they get money back from uncle sam~ LOTS of it…like almost every bit of the taxes we paid on them….
having to pay uncle sam sucks the absolute MOST….i’m to the point where i’m ready to do things ‘under the table’ again….do that creative bookkeeping and not be licensed & employer IDed & frikkin honest!
gha!
