NEW YORK — The Internal Revenue Service is recommending that taxpayers hold off on filing their tax returns for 2022 if they received a special tax refund or payment from their state last year. Last year, 19 states offered diverse programs that offered inflation relief payments or refunds for taxpayers. The IRS issued the guidance Friday due to the agency’s uncertainty about the taxability of the payments.

If you got an election-year 'relief' payment, it may now be taxable. 19 states sent out some kind of payment.

I'm going to get taxed for money for which I did work, nor for which I did not ask to receive? Plus, because of this beneficent windfall from Governor Brillcream it is now "requested" that I delay filing my tax forms until the IRS can come up with "instructions"? Will those be available in two months time? Can the Federal bureaucracy move that fast? Here's a real kicker. The bountiful State of California, so awash in money, just sent out another "relief payment" to its residents. TK and I received $700. Except this time instead of a check, it came as an ATM/Debit card. Each transaction carried a $1.25 fee for the bank issuing the card. Dang old age, I can't remember the issuing bank - I already cut up the card. I just put all the money in the savings account. But I couldn't put the whole amount in at one time; it had a $600 dollar one-time transaction limit. So the issuing bank skimmed $2.50 from me for their a contribution to Gaven's presidential run. Taken over the population of California, that bank got a really sweet deal off the taxpayers of California. Perhaps by next year's tax season the IRS will have their "instructions" finished for the uber-progressive state distributions of money they don't have back to the citizens they impoverished on purpose.

The IRS couldn't process last years returns in a timely manner. To soothe the affected taxpayers, they paid interest on the excess time required to process the returns. Those taxpayers received a 1099-INT form in the mail and now have to pay tax on the interest provided to taxpayers because the IRS couldn't process the tax returns on time. With that kind of circular logic the IRS can really screw (npi) taxpayers.

I'm with you #4, I'm still waiting for that $2800.00 my deceased wife and I were supposed to receive. The IRS probably sent it to some thug in prison, which they WERE doing. Actually, I've written that check off in my mind.

I've already filed and received my refund. And since I'm a Virginian who didn't itemize, this nonsense doesn't apply to me anyways, so the IRS and its recommendation can take a hike.

New York City is converting the world’s tallest Holiday Inn hotel into the Big Apple’s sixth mega-shelter for its surging migrant population, Mayor Eric Adams announced Tuesday. The deal will supply 492 rooms for adult families and single women, Adams said in a statement. “With more than 44,000 asylum seekers arriving in the last 10 months alone, we have helped provide shelter and support to nearly as many asylum seekers as the number of New Yorkers we already had in our shelter system when we first came into office,” he said.

The Aldi store in north Minneapolis is closing next week, leaving the wider Northside community with just one large grocery store. The store, located at 3120 Penn Ave. N., will have its final day on Feb. 12. An Aldi spokesperson blamed the closure on "the inability to renovate the store to accommodate our larger product range and our current lease term expiring." It will leave north Minneapolis with just one large grocery chain, Cub Foods at 701 W.

While it's nowhere near the record $5.01 reached in June, its far more than what the average was heading into New Year's Day and what prices were one year ago.

Has (sic) affirmative action hiring practices caused overall competence to plummet? The record appears to show exactly that. For no good reasons whatsoever, competence was allowed to die on the vine in order to give the less competent a leg up. Not equality but superiority rules the hiring, firing, and education of Americans. Worse, many of those who were affirmatively hired do not do as good a job as those whose excellence was obvious. You can see it in customer service, which for many businesses is abysmally incompetent. There is a resentful casualness in those who are hired to serve others that would not have been acceptable even two decades ago.

Sinema made a bold entrance into the House chamber for the speech, after forcing Washington to hold its collective breath during talks on the Inflation Reduction Act, then later announcing she had switched from Democrat to independent.
