Asked onFriday, October 06, 2023 by RidgeI live in Ohio. I am investing in crypto currency. I buy botcoin and send it to a management company who then earns a profit and has me withdraw the value of the portfolio every 2 weeks as USD. How is this taxed? Is it taxed each time I withdraw? Or is it taxed at the end of the fiscal year based on total net capital gains? Or am I saying the same thing a different way? Thank you,

Form 1120 After Revocation of Tax Exempt Status
Asked onThursday, October 05, 2023 by BrandiOrganizations did not file Form 990EZ file for three consecutive years and automatically lost their tax-exempt status. The organization has chosen NOT to seek reinstatement. I understand that an organization would need to fill out a Form 1120 (https://www.irs.gov/charities-non-profits/automatic-revocation-of-exemption) as a corporation and notify the IRS of intent to terminate their EO entity (https://www.irs.gov/charities-non-profits/termination-of-an-exempt-organization#orgs-did-not-file). My biggest question lies in this scenario: a) If the organization files Form 1120 and pay taxes as a corporation, would they have any obligation at that point to distribute cash assets that were acquired before the tax-exempt revocation, and b) Would the organization pay taxes on all assets or only revenue on earnings after the revocation for the tax year? I would sincerely appreciate any guidance or resources that you may be willing to provide. Thank you for your time.

late tax filing
Asked onThursday, October 05, 2023 by MichaelHI I'll jump right into it... I am a physician and have two separate businesses-- one telemedicine clinic and one consulting/mgmt company-- both taxed as S corporations. I also do a little bit of work under my own name. I did not file tax returns for last year because as you will find out if we work together I am a terrible record keeper. I used to do my taxes on my own but this is just overwhelming. I have bank records, credit card records but no hard copy receipts. I did pay taxes through the online systems however I don't know if the amounts were adequate. I have not drawn a salary as I just learned I was supposed to be doing. I also have not been filing quarterly taxes. What I would like to do is have last year and this year's taxes prepared, catch up on any money that I do owe the government, and try to arrange everything so that my tax situation is a more beneficial one. I wanted to contribute to my retirement plans last year but I missed the deadline so I don't know if there's a way to catch up and back date that. I'm also buying a car soon which I would like to have as a business expense. I need some help. If you could give me some information as to your fee structure and availability I would appreciate it. I believe I have until sometime in October to get these returns filed. please let me know if this is something you would like to work with and what our next steps would be thank you, Michael Roberts

Tax Forms For Deceased and Estate
Asked onThursday, October 05, 2023 by ToddMy mom passed away earlier this year and I am the Successor Trustee and Executor. All real estate and bank accounts were in the Living Trust so no probate. I filed an extension ealier this year, 2023, so have to do her last 1040 taxes by 10/15/23 and then next year estate taxes. I applied for and received a new EIN number. The local counties (CA) were notified about her death on their 502 forms for property tax purposes. I have several questions. 1) I believe I use a 1040 taxes write final on it but do I use her old social security number or the new EIN number I got for the estate ? 2) I think I use a 1040 and write final return on it?, but we are still in the process of selling several properties, those sales may not happen until next year what form do I use to do I use for those, form 1031 and 760 and 1310? There was 6 months of rental income after her death , I assume that goes toward the estate form and not her final 1040? 3) There is also an REIT that is locked up and going through bankruptcy court and may not be settled for a few years? How is that handled? 4) I’ve used H&R Block’s Taxcut for years but I see Taxact has an Estates & Trusts tax software, any opinion on best software to use?
