I was expecting to pay ALOT, and my tax guy wiggled a very minimal payment.  I want to tip him, but am not sure how to go about it.

I'm an accountant, and we never expect tips.  A lot of clients will offer things like dinner at a nice restaurant or tickets to an event if they want to do something nice, or offer their products or services in return (example, liquor store owner gives a nice bottle of wine.)  But its definitely not expected or required.

For me it would always depend on the situation. In the winter for instance if they help you in, hail a cab or assist you someother way I'd be inclined to tip up to 5-10 dollars. If its a little more forgiving out and all they do is open your door, then nothing says you have to tip them at all, they do get paid for their job.\n \nNever forget Christmas and their Birthday if you know it. You'll be in like flynt!

Are you a complete and total, fricken dumbass, sh*t-for-brains moron?  Then give them $20 each.\n\nAre you just a ridiculously stupid moron?  Then give them $10 each.\n\nDo you have a shred of intelligence?  Then let them enjoy their incredibly overinflated rates and don't give them a dime.  \n\nYou paid them for a job and they raped you with their rates, and you've already bent over and took it.  Now you want to tip them on top of that?  Somebody should b*tchslap you for asking such a fricken stupid question.  Are you going to ask how much to tip the IRS on April 15th next?  \n\nUnless you hire some illegals in front of Home Depot.  Those guys work their tail off much harder than professional movers and make about 1/5 the wage.  Buy them lunch and some fanta.  And afterwords, give them some beer.

Why not call a tax attorney (some offer a free first consultation).  Find out from him/her what you need to do, how to handle it and what can happen to your fiance if he gets caught.\n\nMany times, a tax attorney can work out a deal with the IRS where you only pay a fraction of what you owe.  As I see it, contacting an attorney, even if you have to pay, is probably the best way to go.

Its really hard to tell how much you can get anyway with paying. I use to do this kind of work. So it depends on how long you have owed them, was you credit good (always made payments on time) until this happened or it was a little rocky sometimes,then what kind of finance company was it ( automobile, private loan from a bank or credit card co, home buying) & has it gone into collections yet?? All these things sometimes makes a difference. But you can always make them an offer. Cause they have told you what the debit was, what they would settle for. So now I would make them an offer. Maybe start with whatever $ amount you can pay right now..then if that fails then offer a little more but it will take you a little bit longer to pay that $ amount. And just go from there. If all else fells, make 1 lump sum, & payments on the rest. BEST OF WISHES, I KNOW ITS HARD!!

Stop delivering for them if you have to.\nOr\nI would send them a letter in writing that you will turn their account to a collection agency.\nOR\nTalk to the person / owner in charge of paying you . Tell them they need to get current and you need to get paid now ( while you are there) That you are at risk of losing your bussiness because so many people ar e behind.\n\nAND\nIn the future take a deposit or prebill for services if you can, and let them know that if they get behind you will not deliver for them ( ya I know you ptbably run the risk of them going to  someone else, but Im also not sure what you deliver)\n\nAnd depending on what kind of bussiness you deliver for I would stand at counter or front desk and tell them you are not leaving till you get paid.

you can tip him anywhere from $2.00-$5.00  but I think that IKEA doesn't allow their employees to accept tips.

Have them pay in advance before you provide the service. They should pay on Monday.

LOL!!! That's hilarious!! The tip was probably not enough. But at least you have a good story to tell, and that's priceless!!!!!

no, its not right for the cashier to do it, and 30% isnt the usual amount, only very few restuarants include a gratuity, and if they do,, its added in before you receive your bill, and they let you know,,,,,,,, i would make sure and let the owner/or manager of that restaurant know what happened,,,,15% is the standard for good service, less if service is bad, more if the server does/gets extra things above what would be normal service

Take him to small claims court.  Be prepared to talk in detail about when he agreed to pay you, and how much he agreed to pay you.  You mentioned he paid when he could.... if you have any paycheck stubs left, bring those to court, it will show that he did in fact pay you for your time (and that you expected to be paid).  And, bring that calendar, he'll have a hard time denying that you work on the dates indicated in the calendar.\n\nGood luck!

File your taxes.  I run a home based business (graphic design) and learned the hard way.  I made $396 in my first year (started in December of that year), and didn't see the need it was small.\n\nI got a HUGE fine from the IRS.  Luckily I got it cleared because I had an atty do the work, but I learned - no matter how small, report it.  It isn't worth the headache.

Why don't you ask your local payroll office.  There should be a number on your pay slip.

I really feel sorry for you. You made $272,000 and you want to reduce your taxes by claiming the clothing you donated?? First of all, you must have a receipt for any donations over $25 or over a total of $250 for small donations. That still isn't going to reduce your taxes by much. And it's too late to do anything about last year's income, anyway. Here's what to do this year. Give a lot more money to charity... and get a receipt.

yes, if the barber was polite and focused on giving you the cut that you desire i think it is appropriate to give them a little tip. it shows that you have some class. lets say the cut cost you 12.99 and the barber gave you excellent customer service plus the cut you desired I would give him a twenty and tell him to keep the change. It isnt often that he gets a tip that big. You will put a smile on his face and will be remembered the next time. However if you just cannot afford to tip at least give a kind remark.

Chase up your employer and ask him to return the form !\nAsk for an interim or emergency payment.
