President wrote executive order for payroll tax deferral, with a payback date and no option out for military service members. Sounds like taxation without representation.

That can be very frustrating.
This sounds like a breach of contract.
Just because there was no signed document does not mean there's no contract.
A contract is the agreement, not the paper.
It sounds like there was a verbal agreement to provide services in... Read more »
You likely don;t have the authority to do that.
It's better if you can come to an agreement on winding down the partnership and put that in writing.

I think that after 30 days I am supose to receive a reimbursement is this true? if so how do I go about getting this back from hotel management?
Probably, under CRS 39-26-704(3) stays of 30 consecutive days or more are tax exempt.
You should speak to the hotel first. If the hotel has already sent the tax to CDOR you would have to get your refund directly from them.
You also have to check the city an county rules. If the... Read more »
I am still trying to get this straightened out. I paid H&R Block to handle back tax filings. They never file my 2018 return. Don't these people have a fiduciary responsibility? I suffered a significant financial loss due to their inaction. Do I have a case to sue them?
First off H&R block are not accountants, they're return preparers regardless of their other certifications.
Second, they do have a responsibility but you're going to have file a lawsuit to get them to do much of anything once they've been paid. They do this all the time... Read more »

They'll make an adjustment when you transfer from the old to the new and charge you the difference.
Good initiative but you're not the first to think of this and every state has setup procedures to stop it.

Yes you technically can, but it doesn't work. You end up netting if it works out well and you have to defend it in an audit. It always ends up being net taxable when the IRS recalculates the FMV of the rental.

Hi,
I did my tax a month ago and filed by mail.
I am not sure if my taxes has been accepted.
I have my I140 and I need to submit it for immigration case.
My question is it okay to send my tax return as it is even though there is a chance it gets rejected or should I wait?
From a tax perspective the return has been filed when it's placed in the mail. If something happens in the future with the IRS that will be an adjustment of that return. There's nothing that can unfile it.
I would also check with an immigration attorney to make sure the... Read more »

I would review the documents provided by the program under which your housing is subsidized. Just pull the documents directly and see what they say. Then if you feel that the landlord has requested too much you have documentation to backup your claim and contact information for the organization... Read more »
