If I was to only drink Dos xx and Corona could I use that as a tax right off for donating to Charity(Mexico)?

No. Drinking substandard beer is not charity, it's just plain bad judgment. With so many great microbrews available in the U.S., sending money to Mexican breweries might be considered un-American under some parts of the Patriot Act.\n\nHomeland Security might park a white van across the street from your house and wire your taps to find out what you're pouring at home. Do not. I repeat, do not, drink Mexican beer past Cinco de Mayo.

Straight 12.5% service tax nothing else! There are few restaurants how took some extra taxes but they r fake, don't pay any thing else except ur bill+12.5%. Ask for proper bill.\n\none like this is khana unlimited, CP,New delhi. They charged me12.5% service tax+10% VAT. I fought with them and asked them to give me proper bill they returned me 10% VAT Portion!!! \n\nNormally they are used to give bill on plain paper which can not be used as proper evidence.

They take it away, lock you up in shackles and chains, throw you in a dank and dirty dungeon with only a small shaft of dim light, feeding you only gristle, bread crumbs, and dirty latrine water. \nThey confiscate it and charge you with prohibitions, fraud, or something else, depending on your age and other circumstances. I wouldn't try it for a lousy drink...

There is, but i don't know if it applies for the whole country or only for the border zone. \n\nWhat I do, is go to an "exports boker" or something like that (most times they have locals in the shopping malls), and give him my receipts, so that he makes a pay order with my name in it, for the ammount of the sales tax. It usually takes an entire day for you to be able to get the money from that pay order.

Don't deduct food and drinks consumed while working.  That's a big red flag.  Only if you are entertaining for business purposes (wooing clients, for example) can you deduct food, and then it's strictly limited.

A deduction of $250 or more requires a written acknowledgment (receipt) from the charity, so the answer to your question is $249.99.  The legal answer is, you can claim the amount you donated, up to $249.99, even if you don't have a receipt.

Currently, it is not legal in this country. Plasma, yes, but whole blood, no. That is why we have so many blood banks around the country that count on their donors to keep up the supply.\n\nAnd for the benefit of hot sing, as a Mason I served for several years as a chairman of our blood bank. The ONLY income to a non-profit bank is from the sale of whole blood, serums and donations. The expenses are very high.

Good idea! \nIt might be a start--why not? They overcharge for Mexican food anyway--it's mostly tortillas (super cheap) and beans (super cheap) with a little meat thrown in. Besides, you can make Margaritas at home!

I am sorry that you miss the heads! last I heard, they sent them to mexico. I guess they use them like they use coconuts down there. like when they put drinks in the coconut shells. so if you go to cancun, or maybe tiajuanna, you can find someone using one as a glass.

If you are just selling a few odds & ends - NO.\nIf you make a business of it or have a 'shop' then you need to pay taxes according the the laws of your country.

Either way, the money doesn't get used in the U.S. as any corporation of the size to be able to open sites in Mexico has a ton of tax shelters that prevent paying taxes.  Mexico benefits far more from both situations than the U.S. does.

Selling it.  Under current IRS regulations, your deduction would be the amount the charity sells the car for, unless the charity is going to keep it for an extended period of time or else materially modify it.  \n\nIf we assume that you're in the 25% tax bracket, if you donate the car, and they get $5000, you would receive a deduction of $5000, which would result in you paying $1250 less in taxes (plus whatever state rate).  That's not too bad of a deduction.  However, if you sell the car outright, you are likely to receive close to the same price they did.  Even if you received only half what they sell it for, that would mean you get $2500 in cash, which is twice as much as the donation gave you.

No, but you can donate them to charity and the banks will sort that out for the charity.

Government hates to loose money like that. OH, NO\nThey will never make it illegal. They want our tax money to support their lifestyles.\nRemember when alcohol was illegal in the old days?

I don't think so. If you want to avoid tax, go to somewhere where they don't have it. Maybe use Swiss bank accounts too.
