I filed my taxes with Turbo Tax last year and their third party vendor hasn’t delivered my tax refund and is saying they need to deduct fees for delivery. Im asking for a receipt for the fees and they are refusing.

answered on Feb 1, 2023
This sound suspicious.
Even when you use TurboTax to file your federal income tax return, the IRS directly sends your tax return to you. You can request it direct deposit it into your bank account or mail you a check.
I know of no third party vendor ever involved in this process.

Back in 2020 a friend asked me if I would co-sign for her to get a car. When I went to the dealership the employee asked for my information for the car she was purchasing. This included my Insurance and when I asked why they stated that it was because the associate stated they needed it for their... Read more »

How have you been harmed by the dealership?
You co-signed.
So you and your friend are jointly liable for the purchase price of the car.
If anything, you have a claim against your friend for wrecking the car.

No, you don’t have to pay for them.
No, you can’t keep them.
Notify the store that they were delivered anyway despite your cancellation of the order and arrange a time for them to come pick them up.

I have an LLC registered as partnership. Do I need to run payroll to pay the members? How to claim business expenses? Can I write off business car purchase as an expense?

answered on Dec 15, 2022
Yes, as long as the vehicle is used for business purposes. It is highly advisable that title is taken in the name of the LLC and is covered by a commercial motor vehicle liability insurance policy rather than a personal one
Am I liable? I'm pretty won't care. I live in south Texas and even large corporations have Mexican accounting standards.

answered on Dec 12, 2022
Yes, this is likely an issue. I will need to learn more about the situation to provide you with legal advice.

Forming a brokerage firm like this and creating a bond to offer to members of the public is a relatively complex endeavor.
You need to contact a business formation attorney who handles SEC regulated securities firms to avoid potential criminal legal problems

I would need to learn more about your case. It is unclear what is being sold.
Wondering if a business sale contract gives similar protection benefits to something like a mechanic's lien - where the debt can be secured with property or other collateral.

answered on Nov 23, 2022
The sale of a business can be collateralized just like other transactions. As long as real estate securing the transaction is not a homestead, real estate can secure the transaction. This is commonly done with a deed of trust.
Perfecting a security interest has different requirements... Read more »
I was leaving a parking lot, when something started to scrape under the car. I got out, and realized that instead of parking blocks, the spaces had metal bars sticking a foot out of the ground. It's a dirt and gravel parking lot, so the bars almost blend into the ground, and they're not... Read more »

A Texas attorney could advise best, but your question remains open for two weeks. It doesn't seem like a good practice for non-security purposes. Based on the description being dirt and gravel, if it's an old and neglected lot, it could be exposed rebar from deteriorated concrete blocks.... Read more »
