"Brace yourself, so far this act has created FIVE new IRS forms, complicating the simplest of tax forms"
For reasons I cant go into I cant change accountants right now, but I would if I could.
So fucking sick of this god damn shit.

(14,449 posts)Coincidentally I did them today and they ask two simple questions. Do you have medical insurance and did you have it all year? I picked yes on both and carried on. I owe 1,300 dollars in federal taxes beyond what I paid so even though my taxes are done. I won't file until April. Why let them use my money for free those few months?

I am on Medicare, not affected by the ACA, but I can't see that it should make very much difference at all. Maybe your accountant is simply ripping you off. Maybe you should look into changing accountants.

(38,315 posts)I've never been sympathetic to affluent people, even when I've been one.
I was raised by artists, my wife was raised by teachers.
If I cared, I could probably shave a lot of money off our taxes.
I hired an aggressive accountant once, but I didn't like him.
It was all legal, but it felt dirty.
