Investment to Primary

Asked onThursday, January 11, 2024 by John

Hello, I currently own my primary residence in Texas but we are planning to move to California in June. We are planning to buy the home in California before we move there by using an investment mortgage and then sell our home in Texas before moving there in June. Once we move to the California property we will probably want to refinance it as a primary residence. What are the tax implications that I may run into when I file taxes in 2025?

Graphic Design Sales Tax

Asked onMonday, January 08, 2024 by Austin

I would like to know if I need to charge clients sales tax as a graphic designer in NY. To give an example: A printer will contract me to do the design work for a billboard. I work on it and when done, will send the print files electronically to the printer. They will then print and install on their end. I will invoice them for the design work and electronic print files only. Sometimes I will invoice the client directly. The client never receives the print files themselves, only the printer. I do not print the items myself nor do I sell printed items on my end.

Asked onMonday, January 08, 2024 by terry

My mother works part time. She works a few days a week. She has numerous health issues and isn't able to afford most of her bills. Due to the extent of her medical conditions, her income isn't enough to pay for most of her bills. I have been supporting her financially with her bills, and they are, including but not limited to, living expenses, medical bills, prescriptions, therapy, transportation etc. I have paid a lot of her bills last year, totaling just under $28,000. Can I claim these amounts on my tax return? Thank you

Operating Budget for Public Hospital Question

Asked onSaturday, January 06, 2024 by Steve

Our public hospitals CFO (nonprofit) have presented the 2024 Operating Budget and the is one line it for revenue that my question pertains to. The hospital purchased a building for a new clinic. The city in which this building is located applied and received a Community Block Grant to renovate for 1.7M. The CFO is using the 1.7M as extra operating revenue to balance the budget. We will have to use reserve funds to pay this. Is this an acceptable practice for budgeting requirements or even legal? Makes no sense to me.
