John Tapscott Posted April 14, 2004 Report Share Posted April 14, 2004 Yes and no. My accountant has done ours, but the forms are still awaiting our signatures.Of course, up here in Canada our deadline is April 30th (we're very progressive up here, but our taxes are higher, too! Some of my tax refund will be heading south of the border and a couple of Mosaic sets will be heading northward (in addition to the JJ which I've already saved for.) Hmm. let's see - the JJ, the Chambers/Kelly, how about a couple of Selects - maybe the Green and the Reece. (Yeah, it's a nice refund). Oh darn there's also the roof which needs fixing and new carpet for the bedroom and new tires or the car....Nahh, Mosaics come first.

maren Posted April 14, 2004 Report Share Posted April 14, 2004 Finished them last month. Will mail it in at the last minute. Sounds like me. Very bad type of procrastination -- do a lot of work and then can't get the final part together. Finished 3 of them (my Federal, son's Fed & state)in the first week of February, but just mailed them last week. Copier at work made bad copies. So in March paid to make copies at a stationery store. Then couldn't find stapler. Then couldn't find stamps. Finally got everything done last Tuesday. One benefit to procrastination -- state helpline finally was answered by humans who explained I could take an EXTRA credit not fully explained in their pamphlet (hadn't wanted to pay a tax guy just to answer this one question).

ghost of miles Posted April 14, 2004 Report Share Posted April 14, 2004 Quick question: do you have to pay Social Security and Medicare taxes on capital gains (stock sales)? I always thought those were payroll taxes--but I'm thinking I better make sure. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tjazz Posted April 15, 2004 Report Share Posted April 15, 2004 (edited) Turbotax makes it easy for me. Almost missed the 2 different boxes for dividends. (new this year) Edited April 15, 2004 by Tjazz Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jim Alfredson Posted April 15, 2004 Report Share Posted April 15, 2004 Crap... looks like we're gonna owe some pretty serious money. And since The Man took everything out of our savings account the other week (which is where my wife was saving for 2003 taxes), we're gonna have to improvise (ie, time to sell my kidney on the black market!) Ha! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Uncle Skid Posted April 15, 2004 Report Share Posted April 15, 2004 Quick question: do you have to pay Social Security and Medicare taxes on capital gains (stock sales)? I always thought those were payroll taxes--but I'm thinking I better make sure. I think so -- the way I understand it is that FICA and Medicare are taxes on *earned* income only. Since capital gains are considered unearned income, those taxes would not apply. Usually, employers handle all of the required deductions of those taxes (straight percentages up to $87,000 dollars), so most people would not have paid too much or too little over the year. Since I'm self-employed, I get to pay *twice*: 7.65% for me, and 7.65% for the "self-employment" tax. I'm sure the answer is there somewhere on irs.gov, but I'd be surprised if it was easy to find.

I always thought those were payroll taxes--but I'm thinking I better make sure. You do NOT pay or owe taxes for Social security or medicare on capital gains. (stock sales) Those are payroll taxes or self-employment taxes only. (answer is alittle late) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jazzbo Posted April 16, 2004 Report Share Posted April 16, 2004 My wife drives me nuts every year because she insists on doing the taxes (and for a while her stock holdings made for a good excuse for her to do so, that she does not now have) and she procrastinates and procrastinates and. . . I would have them in the mail in early February if I could, but instead. . . I mailed the return off April 13! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
