Filing late

i need to file my 2022 tax forms that were due october of last year, is there a way to do it online without sending them in the mail or buying turbo tax which is $80 for the software alone? I used turbo tax online for this year but they said I would have to buy software to do the previous years taxes. Thanks

1099 MISC for NY paid family leave

I received a 1099-MISC for New York paid Family Leave. I live in New Jersey and work in New York and file a NJ resident tax return and NY non-resident tax return. In box 17 for State/Payers State # it has NJ. In box 18 for State Income it has the amount. Is this table in New York, New Jersey, or both? Thank you.

How to account for co-mingled business and personal Treasury Direct purchase?

I opened a Treasury Direct account in my wife's name and purchased (then redeemed) I-Bonds with the account. Unfortunately, I linked the Treasury Direct account to our business bank account by mistake. So the Treasury Direct account is registered to a personal social security number, but the business account shows a debit and credit for the purchase and redemption. How should I account for this for both the business and our personal taxes? My original intention was for it to be a personal investment, not a business investment. Thank you for your help. This has been a confusing topic to research.

About taxes in New Mexico

In May 2023, I formed an LLC in Albuquerque, New Mexico. In December 2023, I received an EIN number. Our company works in the software industry and provides software services to clients in Europe. For the services provided by our company, our clients in Europe will pay to the company account. What kind of taxation will apply in this case? For example, if a total of 50.000 usd is invoiced for 1 year, how much tax do I have to pay? Also, how much tax rate should I reflect on each invoice?

In 2023, I terminated my contract as an employed physician to seek a new opportunity. As such, I was required to pay the premium for tail insurance (extended liability insurance covering the previous employment). Am I able to deduct this as a business related expense or similar?

Tax distribution

Me and my friend are starting a business. She has an stablish LLC and the contract we will getting using her LLC name will be to split 50/50. My idea is to join as subcontractor and we want to split the earnings 50/50. Whoever the question is who will be taxed more her LLC or me? She suggested her keeping a higher percentage of the money because she will have to pay taxes at the end. But my understanding is that LLC is through pass and it will work the same on either side.
