Pay Off Installment Plan

by Krystle
(Michigan)

For the 2010 taxes, I set up an installment plan. I now was able to open up a credit line and was wondering if it was possible to pay off that installment plan so I do not have any more tax liabilities. Is this even possible to pay it off all at once? If so, can you tell me how I go about this? Thank you!

Paying Back The 1st Time Homebuyers Credit

by Leah
(Bloomington, IN)

Hi! Last year, we took advantage of the 1st time home buyers tax credit. We closed on the house in April 2010.

Now, we have a had some significant changes in our lives and we're expecting our first child! The only problem is that our quaint little turn of the century bungalow is now starting to seem more than a little cramped.

Are we stuck? I think I heard that if we move within the first two years, we have to pay back the $8,000...does anyone know if it is prorated, or if there are allowances for extenuating circumstances that would allow you to not have to pay it back?

Thanks!!

Paying Out-Of-State Taxes

by Mark
(Cambridge, MA)

Hi,

I live/work in Massachusetts, but earned some consulting income (reported on a 1099 form) from a California source. All the work was performed in MA - I never set foot in California during the tax year. Am I expected to pay CA non-resident state tax, assuming the earned amount is above the dollar-amount threshold that requires a CA return to be submitted?

Thanks in advance!
