Some quick dumb questions for a tax problem
Ahh my CPA is closed today and i want to ship these off ASAP. Didnt know where to put this but any help is greatly appreciated.
1.) Do I have to write my SS# on the Cashiers Checks I send in? 2.) Where do I send the FBAR? 3.) How many stamps do I need? I will be sending the FBAR in a regular envelope, but my actual tax's are in are in their own "first class mail" big envelopes with green on them. How many stamps do I need on each one? thanks ssoo much |

Re: Some quick dumb questions for a tax problem
Not answering stamp question, feel them and guess, round up. FBAR goes to Detroit. I believe I previously posted address, but if not it is in IRS link I posted on FBAR's.
You mean the cashier's checks with which you are paying taxes, if you are paying by check I believe you should have a tax payment voucher for each check. That should be filled out, and sent with the check, and generally you should have your SSN and the form number on the check. This information should be on the form you are filing. If you tell me what forms you are filing, I can be more specific. By the way, try not pay your taxes by check, it leaves you open to identity theives. |

Re: Some quick dumb questions for a tax problem
Also I need to know where my schedule B is? My CPA's are idiots and I they told me NOT to file my Neteller account, but Im filing the FBAR anyways even though Im late.
I just cant find the schedule B. Should I send the FBAR in anyways straight away just so I dont get sent to prison? I already made the Cashiers Checks, put SS# on them, hopefully thats good enough. Im filing my federal and local tax's and the FBAR. |

Why send an incomplete return when today's not a deadline? 2. www.irs.gov/pub/irs-pdf/f90221.pdf Department of the Treasury Post Office Box 32621 Detroit, MI 48232-0621 3. If you send it on Monday, you can take it to the post office. Otherwise, I'd put three stamps on it to be safe (I took mine to the post office and it think it was slightly more than two stamps). |

Re: Some quick dumb questions for a tax problem
Thanks for all the help guys. My CPA advised me NOT to send in my FBAR. I had to beg for him to help me fill it out and they accept no responsibility for it. Are they going to help me with the Schedule B?

Are they going to help me with the Schedule B? [/ QUOTE ] These are separate issues. The FBAR goes out by iself. It's a one-page, easy form. You won't send any additional information or tax forms with it. It takes one first-class stamp. As for your CPA, he works for you, not the other way around. He'll "help you" (i.e., he'll do his job) because you, the client, require it. If he doesn't, feel free to inform him you'll report him to your state's Professional Ethics Division for advising you to fill out an inaccurate return and then refusing to aid you in fixing it. Anyway, you don't really need a CPA to fill out the one-page FBAR, nor to file an amended return where you're simply adding a check mark and "Isle of Mann" to your sch. B. |

Re: Some quick dumb questions for a tax problem
Youve been so helpful, one more question if you will.
On the FBAR, Part 1 seems to be filled out. Part 2(Information on Financial Accounts) seems half filled out, there is nothing written in boxes 27-35 27 - Last Name or Organization name of Account Holder 28 - First Name 29 - Middle Initial 30 - Taxpayer Identification Number(what the hell is that) 31 - Address 32 - City 33 - State 34 - Zip/Postal Code 35 - Country He filled out the rest of the form but left those blank, do I fill them in with my name/address again or leave them blank, or are they for another purpose? |

Re: Some quick dumb questions for a tax problem
27 - 35 should be blank, as you had a financial interest in the account, per box 26.
