@MissConstrue Preparing for our #tax filing, I just pulled up the Notices to see if Trump or DOGE did away with Obama era rule that makes certain income tax free for certain health care workers.

Luckily, it still does. If they had done away with it, we would owe an additional $12K in income taxes, self-employment (FICA), etc. #USPol

📰 Another riveting exposé: #XML, the marvel of modern #technology, has been hailed as a "cheap DSL"! 🚀 Because nothing says cutting-edge like a markup language first published in 1998. 🙄 Meanwhile, the #IRS is apparently dabbling in open source, because who doesn't want a community-driven tax estimator? Just the excitement we needed. 💸💻

The IRS’s Verification System for Sharing Taxpayer Data With ICE Would Have Accepted ‘Don’t Care 12345’ as a Valid Address

The reason folks turn to crowdfunding like #GoFundMe is because the US health system fails them - they have no other option. And now the #IRS is going after those desperate people instead of taxing billionaires who can actually afford it? Make it make sense. #TaxTheRich #Inequality #PublicHealth

What are those? I'm serious. There would be no way for the #IRS to face a massive just not going to pay. It would have to be massive. I would never expect that to come quickly. But I make my small contribution. They will have to come after me. I willingly give #Caesar what is theirs. Nothing.

"Biden said partnerships were evading $100B in taxes. Trump says🚨they shouldn’t have to report the transactions.

The IRS wants to make crypto tax forms digital-only: exchanges could terminate accounts if users refuse electronic delivery of Form 1099-DA. The proposal is open for comment until May 5. https://cryptoslate.com/refusing-new-irs-crypto-tax-forms-could-cost-you-your-exchange-account/ #Blockchain #Crypto #Tax #IRS
Refusing new IRS crypto tax forms could cost you your exchange account

The IRS would let exchanges bundle electronic delivery consent into onboarding and potentially terminate accounts that refuse.
