自己开公司报税：
Q1:我们家有个小生意。 今年报税需要向会计师提供些什么资料呢。
我们没有employee（我不算的话） 都是independent contractor
像我们生意的升入支出我们应该以什么方式提交呢？
账本， excel？ quickbook？
Q：Did you use your own social security # for all your business income? If you did, you need to file Schedule C on your individual tax returns. If you registered a company and have it's own tax id #, you need to file a tax returns for that company.
If for schedule C, you only need to give your accountant the total income, and a list of expenses by account type, such as travel, meals, office expense, office supplies, ...
If for a company, you need to include your balance sheet as well.

401K,IRA
Q1: 如果我自己用税后的钱买了roth IRA,我也没有收到任何表，在1040 15a, 我是不是填我买的数额,然后15b填0？谢谢！
A:you do not need to report your Roth IRA contribution since it is not tax deductable. line 15a & 15b is for IRA distributions.
A:no. you do not need to report anything for your 401k unless you make any distributions.
Q3: 在４０１K里的股票跌了大半但是没有卖掉的话， 是不是和报税无关？
A: no, even you sell the stocks, you cannot claim the loss. 401K money is taxable only when you take the distribution out
A2:只要前没有从401k里面拿出来，不论卖不卖都和报税无关。

如果要报的话我该怎么给federal和state报呢？我今天已经都报完税了。
update:刚在irs网上看到："If you discover an error after your return has been mailed, you may need to amend your return. The service center may correct errors in math on a return and may accept returns with certain forms or schedules left out. In these instances, do not amend your return! However, do file an amended return if your filing status, your income, your deductions or credits were incorrect. "
这个意思是我到底还用不用修改我的tax return?
A1: Even the taxable amount is Zero, you still need to report it, otherwise, IRS won't be able to match their #s with your tax returns. Since you already file your returns, and there is no error on your tax liablities, it is up to you if you want to file an amended tax returns.
A2；I have exactly the same situation, I input 1099R in Turbotax, with box 1 some dollars and box 2(taxable amount) $0. The tax won't change, just you will have the amount rollovered in 16a of 1040.
I think IRS won't care since your tax isn't going to change.
A3：
如果你lg做的是direct rollover，就是401k直接把钱转了IRA的账户，就没关系，不用再修改了。
用TAXACT填的时候, 软件问:Traditional IRA Contributions Amount.
我们公司是用401K计划, 我也没有选ROTH IRA, 请问这个401K的钱是IRA的contribution嘛?如果是,钱的数目要怎么算阿 或者从哪个表格上看?
A:
Both 401K and Traditional IRA are retirement plans.
401K provided by your employer, and it allows you to save money in a tax deferred account via payroll deductions. Some companies match your contribution, and this is free money, you should take advantage of it. You have higher limits than traditional IRA. For 2008, the limit is $15,500. If you are 50 or older, you can contribute an additional $5K. 2008 traditional IRA limits are $5,000 and an extra $1,000 for catch up if you are 50 or older. 401K is tax-deductible contibutions. You can deduct your contributions from your taxable income in the year you contribution is made. This means that you will pay less taxes for that year. Also, the gains on your investments will not be taxed while held in your 401K accounts.
Traditional IRA is for people who does not have 401K, or people who want to contribute more money in addition to 401K.
IRA has more investment options. The due date is 4/15. You can make contributions to your spouse. 401K is only for employees.
