What else would change in this years tax return?

Answer: Yes, I knew about the phone excise Tax Refund. It was 30.00.. You would think it would have been more but that was all. I have no idea what else will change on this years tax returns. Tax time is almost here and I dread it. . .

Head Of Household Status

Question: I made 13k last year my filling status was head of household with 2 dependents?

would I get the tax credit in May if so how much?

Answer: Yes, you’d get $300 for yourself, plus $300 for each qualifying child, so if the two dependents are your qualifying children you’d end up with $900 total.

You don’t pay any tax with that income, head of household, and two dependents, so you don’t get the full $600 for yourself, but do get $300.

Joint Return Tax

Joint Return Tax

Question: How do married couple file joint tax return if both are gambler?

Assume that my wife gambles to the same extent as I do. Also assume that we file a joint tax return. If my wife has a large net gambling gain for the year and I had a large net gambling loss, can we combine our gambling transactions and use his loss to offset her winnings? What are the IRS laws that apply?

Answer: Each of your winnings and losses stand on their own. The combined winnings go on line 21 of Form 1040. Each of you then figures your portion of deductible losses limited to your actual winnings and the total goes on Schedule A as a miscellaneous itemized deduction. This misc deduction is not subject to the 2% floor.

Keep in mind that the IRS is likely to audit your return. They will expect to see detailed records and receipts for all gambling activity. Your records must include all gambling sessions, casino name and address, machine or table numbers, etc.

Example:

You: Won $20k & lost $50k.
Wife: Won 100k & lost 20k.

Gambling winnings on line 21: $120k
Schedule A loss: $40k. $20k for you (limited to your winnings.) and $20k for wife (her actual losses since her winnings were higher.)
