Sales Tax Refund Houston

Question: How do I get my sales Tax Refund for purchases I made in Houston and Miami. I am an international visitor.?

Just visited and I tried to claim my sales tax refund on exiting the U.S at Atlanta. No one seems to have heard about tax refunds. I have all my purchase receipts with me. Too bad I am leaving the U.S without my tax refund. Can I process this still from outside the states?

Answer: The United States does not offer a tax refund to tourist.

Question: Can I, a canadian tax-payer re-submit previous returns?

Re-assessment from the tax payer’s side?
Revenue Canada has the right to go back over the last 6 years of your tax return.
Can the tax payer (myself, a non-resident living in Ireland but receiving a canadian pension) re-submit past returns? I realized after quite a bit of research (and because I have a battle going on with the revenue office) that I should have filed under section 217 in order to save quite a bit of tax. I had never heard of it; the Canada revenue never mentioned it.
So – do we, as tax payers have the right to re-submit our past returns?

Answer: Assuming that the year in question is within the past 10 tax years, then you can seek to amend your return. However, it is up to their discretion to allow the change.

Generally, you can file a an adjustment using a T1-adjustment form. However, if the changes are you are making are quite long, than you can use the normal T1 package for that tax year. If you use the normal T1 package, you should indicate that it is an amended return. At the top of the first page, below the year, just write “amended”.

Question: Divorce not final until October 2008, how will this affect my taxes?

I live in California and my divorce was final on 10/9/08. Will this affect mine and my ex-husbands taxes when we go to file? I am planning on filing head of household, and claiming my son (who is not my ex’s biological child) as a dependant. But because we were officially still married for the first 10 months, does that mean that we have to file a different way? Thanks for all your help!

Answer: You are not married for 2008 tax return. You will file as single. You can file as head of household.

Otherwise, if you submitted your return, a good way to reach us is by leaving a note on your status page. It’s much faster than email. If your return was accepted, and you applied for the 1-2 day Rapid Access Loan, you can check your refund status at www.sbbtral.com. Our sincere apologies for any issues and late responses. Our first priority is to get your returns out to the IRS. And to answer the post below, there is one ripoff report this year and that lady had her return efiled by us and she was refunded her money. We also paid for certified mail delivery of her check twice (the first time, the postman couldn’t find the address). If that’s a ripoff, we got ripped off. If you have an issue please call at the number that was given 718-779-8240. It’s not a computer! You will eventually reach someone. Or please send me an email, wv@rapidtax.com.

Questions Of Cash: ‘Long-running insurance Saga is a headache’

Q. In December 2010 Saga quoted me £382.18 to insure a Volkswagen Golf, based upon my 60 per cent no-claims bonus discount. It said that the policy would be sent immediately. But the policy did not arrive and I was unable to speak to anyone at Saga, despite repeated phone calls. I wrote on 12 January to cancel that policy.
