FIRST TAX CARNIVAL OF THE NEW YEAR

Better late than never! “Tax Carnival #28: Welcome to Tax Filing Season 2008” is now up over at Kay Bell’s DON’T MESS WITH TAXES blog.

I am represented twice in the first Tax Carnival of the new year. My post on “Three Cheers for the Home Office Deduction!” from THE FLACH REPORT and “What You Need to Know Before Donating a Vehicle to Charity” from right here at THE WANDERING TAX PRO are included. Thanks, Kay, for allowing me to “double dip”.

I noticed some new participants this time around, with some good advice and information. SINGLE GUY MONEY warns about the tax refund debit cards provided by our old friends Henry and Richard. While free to receive, SGM points out that, as we would expect from H+R, there are lots of hidden fees when you use the card. My advice has always been forget about the free tax refund debit card – stay away from H+R Block altogether.

Speaking of DON’T MESS WITH TAXES, Kay Bell reminds us that today, January 15th, is the due date of the fourth (4th) quarter 2007 federal and state estimated tax payment.

Kay’s post also provides the due dates for 2008 estimated tax payments.
