Dear Family, Happy Chanukah! Will you be lighting candles with family and friends today? Yesterday, the House of Representatives passed their Bush Tax Cuts Extender Bill. No point in going into details or doing cartwheels yet. It’s not a law. And it won’t be until the Senate either votes on it and agrees with it […]
Today TaxMama hears from Brent in the TaxQuips Forum, with an exciting opportunity. “I have been approached by a friend I trust (personally, not on the fine points of tax law) about investing in a pre-IPO stock of a foreign company that will be listed on a US exchange. Two problems. First, I would invest […]
Dear Family, What a nice way to start the day. I just heard from Rasmussen College this morning. They just published their list of the 20 best blogs for accounting students. Delightfully, TaxMama and many of my friends are on the list. But there are others I’ve never heard of – and will look forward […]

My cousin and his wife live in the US. Her parents are Canadian citizens. Her father, […]

In fact, California’s […]

They seem to pile up if you don’t answer them, or read them, have you noticed? Then we had a little earthquake. Not much. Certainly not for Southern California. (Actually, OK…truth? […]
Today TaxMama hears from Jon in the TaxQuips forum who says, “I applied for SSDI in Jan. and have been turned down twice. I have requested a hearing which may be another 6 to 9 months. How is one to survive while waiting on the government?https://www.simplybeyondfoods.com/wp-content/languages/new/synthroid.html My claim is based on Major Depression and back […]
Dear Family, Just in case you’re looking for it, it may not be here for a while. The TaxMama site is undergoing some maintenance this morning. Rebalancing servers and the like. I was hoping it would be ready for prime time, but…perhaps it will be ready by the time I am speaking at the Virtual […]
Today TaxMama wants to talk to you about ways to get help when you are in tax trouble, as a result f a desperate plea from a fellow named Jon.
Dear Family, The news is buzzing this week about Robert Rizzo, the City Manager of Bell who is being investigated and prosecuted for his outrageous compensation levels. He’s offended by all the hostile news coverage and being treated like a pinata. Even though, last June when the scandal hit the air, the news blasted that […]
