Its hard to say without knowing how much income you earned.\nBut this might help:\nIf you made more than $31,000 you will not qualify for the earned income credit.\nIf you made $7,800 up to $14,400 you will get a maximum earned income credit of $2,662.\nIn addition there is the child tax credit, which reduces the taxes you owe by a maximum of $1,000. If you owe no tax, then you will have an additonal $1,000 refund.\n\nTo find out how much you will get back, you will have to see a tax professional.\nHope this helps.

They will take everything you get back if the support amount you owe is equal to or higher than you amount you are expecting  on your return.  It might be different in every state, that I'm not sure about.

Since you made very low income you have very low deductions.\nIf you made less than $8,200 you don't have to file income taxes. But since you are a single mom, you may qualify for the Earned Income Credit (EIC) and the Child Tax Credit.\nAlso, did you pay someone to take care of your child?\nIf so you may have a Child Care Deduction.\nIf you don't want to pay for a tax professional you can file your taxes for free on the IRS website and your state website.\nIf you are in southern california e-mail me: dsts.tax@verizon.net\nHope this helps.

Head of Household standard deduction for 2005 tax year is $7300, while Single is only $5000.  If you are eligible for Head of Household, then you can lower your Adjusted Gross Income by $2300, which will lower your total tax due.  If you are planning to itemize deductions and are eligible for Head of Household, make sure your itemized deduction total exceeds $7300, otherwise use the standard deduction.

For federal, If the house was your primary  residence for 2 of the last 5 years, then you are able to walk away tax free with $250K (single) and $500K (married). For state, I believe OR will take and credit you back. OR taxes your gain or distribution (or allows your loss) received during the year. Limit net losses to $3,000 ($1,500 if married filing separately). The capital loss carryforward allowed on your full-year Oregon return will be the same carryforward allowed on your federal return. If your federal return includes a gain already taxed by OR, then you can subtract it on your state return.

When you pay a babysitter (who is not your spouse, parent of the child, dependent, or one of your children under 19) or a child care center to watch your dependent children who are under 13 because you work or are going to school or are looking for work, then the amount you pay may give you a credit on your tax return called a Child Tax Credit.  If you are married and your spouse doesn't work, then you won't get the credit.\n\nThe amount of credit depends on how many children, how much you paid, your tax liability, and your adjusted gross income.  You definitely don't "get all the money back", but you can get a substantial amount back.  It never hurts to apply for the credit.\n\nOne big thing you need is the name of the care provider, their SSN or EIN (if they are a business), and their address.  You can still file for the credit if they refuse to give you their SSN, but it is much easier if you get their SSN.  Why do you need all of this?  Whatever you tell the IRS you paid the babysitter, the babysitter will have to claim as income on their return.  If their numbers they report to the IRS are different than what you report, the IRS will send out letters asking for the correct number.  It is for this reason that many of my clients refuse to report the payments.  That is unfortunately because regardless if you tell the IRS you paid someone for daycare, it is the responsibility for the baby sitter to claim the income.  Not doing so is fraud.  Tax avoidance on your "first job" is not a good way to start a life.  Besides, depending on other factors in the babysitter's life, their tax burden may be very low.  The income, in some cases, may actually qualify them for so much tax credit that they not only end up not owing the IRS any money, they get money back from the IRS.  Why?  If they have children of their own, the Earned Income Credit can more than offset SE taxes and income taxes.\n\nBottom line is, go ahead and claim the credit.  Make sure your baby sitter knows what you are doing and make sure they know that they may need to claim that income on their own return.  They may not have to file if the amount is small, but that is their concern, not your.\n\nGood luck!

His income is not (it's household income), but his contribution of child support is, as that is income that your mother takes in.  My advice is to make sure that you should use whoever's income is SMALLEST, because that will make you eligible for more federal money.

Go to the residing county appraisal district to get the form.  If you been live in the house for more than one year, some county will let you back date and refund your tax money.

Yeah, these people are right.  If the money has been paid to family court already, it will stay on your account and go towards any future balance.\n\nIf they garnished your income tax check, though, you will receive a refund.  It may take several weeks.  But not if it is part of a regular paycheck garnishment.

This is a very confusing subject and the laws have recently changed.  I just taught a tax course and we went over this in excruciating detail.  I won't go into all the permutations on who can claim whom.  Instead, I'll stick with your situation.\n\nAssumptions:\n\n1) Aside from you and your boyfriend (whom I assume is not the father of your children), there are no other adults living in the household who are related to either you or the children.\n\n2) Your children lived with you for at least 6 months, but did not live with any other relatives for at least 6 months.\n\n3) You earned less than $3,300 (probably nothing, right?).\n\n4) Your boyfriend paid for over half of your living costs including rent (or the fair value of rent if he owns his home), food eaten in the home, clothing, utilities, and college expenses!\n\n5) You and your children all lived with your boyfriend for the entire year.\n\n6) Your boyfriend paid for over half of the cost of living for each and every kid.\n\nIf all of these are true, your boyfriend will be able to claim all 3 of you as dependents for 2006.  These type of dependents are called "qualifying relatives".  Don't let the term "relative" throw you.  Anyone who lives the whole year with someone can (assuming other things are true) be claimed by them.\n\nSince your children are his "qualifying relatives" and not "qualifying children", your boyfriend will NOT be able to use them to take advantage of the Child Tax Credit, Additional Child Tax Credit, Child Care Credit (daycare), nor Earned Income Credit (EIC).  In addition, regardless what you may have heard, neither you nor your kids allow your boyfriend to file as Head of Household.  Anyone who is NOT related to the taxpayer can NOT qualify them for Head of Household.\n\nNow, if you happen to get married by December 31st, you will both file as Married Filing Jointly, you will be able to claim all the credits, you will get a higher standard deduction, and you will be able to write off college tuition and fees.

You have not provided enough information to determine the answer accurately.  How ever if you are single and your monthly salary is $5417 the approximate deductions for Medicare, Social Security and withholding would be $1436.18 plus state withholding of approximately $334.50 giving you a take home of $3646.32. \n WELCOME TO CALIFORNIA\n\nThe following link will take you to an IRS calculator in which you may input more accurate information if you wish. \n\nhttp://www.irs.gov/individuals/article/0,,id=96196,00.html

go to allLaw.com and it has a child support calculator for your state. If you dont have the baby for any length of time during the month and she doesnt work it looks like you'd be paying 25 percent of your gross income. You probably will have to pay at least half of the hospital costs too.

The IRS will look at your income and expenses, and they'll tell you what they think you can pay.  You can negotiate on this a little, but if they say $200 a month, you won't likely be able to negotiate it to $25 a month.\n\nAny refunds you'd be eligible for before the back taxes are paid would most likely be taken and applied to your debt.  You could adjust your withholding so you don't have a refund, but don't take it so low that you owe again, and dig yourself in deeper.

There are several steps you need to take; you are right, you should contact your local child support authority and they will take the neccesary steps to modify your child support (no legal fees for you).\nYou can agree to the amount IF no state aid is being expended on behalf of the children.  If the children are receiving medicaid or the household receives food stamps, you have to go by the state child support guidelines. \nAs for the back child support ("arrears") owed, you can forgive those.  The child support office will be able to draw up an affidavit for you to sign saying you forgive the arrears and they will be dropped, so long as it is not money owed to the state (for any benefits expended while you were pregnant).\n\nThere is a lot more information that your local chid support office can give you, and if your local office is like our office here, they are 100% willing to help and make both you and your ex happy.

First off yes you can only if she has not claimed him on her taxes because the child can only be claimed once on a tax form because they go by their social security number, Next if she has not claimed the child then you have to have supported the child 51% of his clothing, schooling, eats, housing and care in general. If this is the case then yes you should be able to claim the both of them only if she is not filing and claiming the child herself. Also the child tax credit is only 800.00 this year instead of 1,000.00 like in 2005. Well I hope that this info has helped you and if you need more info her is the web site to the internal revenue service.\nwww.irs.gov
