Question: What happens if i dont charge taxes on my online-home business?

… i live in California.
i’m only sixteen, but my mom helps me run the business.
we sell handcrafted jewelry, skirts, and totebags that we handcraft at home.

do i legally have to charge taxes?
what happens if i dont?
im planning to take orders through paypal

thanks.

Answer: Yes you’re legally required to get a sales tax license from CA, collect the tax and remit it to CA.

If you don’t, when you get caught, you’ll have to pay the sales tax out of your own pocket that you should have collected, plus interest and penalties. Don’t go there.

Canadian personal income tax – tax deduction vs. tax credit

Question: File tax return question?

I’m going to file U.S tax for 2007 under the resident alien category. As I moved back to Canada, do I need to file income tax for 2008 if I still have a saving account in U.S that may generate some interest this year. If anyone knows, please reply. Thanks.

P.S: The estimate interest may be less than $50.

Answer: I would think not…

Freedom After Highschool?–Skills Canada Submition 2008

Question: How is the amount of unemployment you receive determined in California?

Hi, I have recently found out my department is being laid off. How much unemployment can i expect to receive while searching for my next job. Ive worked here for a little over a year and make about 2400/monthly before taxes… is it by a percentage or how to they determine how much you get? thanks

Answer: they base if off of what you made last year… let’s say you made 20k for the last year…. you would receive half of whatever your paycheck was for the year prior… in essence your salary would go from 20k to 10k

and umm… for 6 months.. no longer!

not sure why i got a thumbs down for this… but i was on it for 6 months… i know how it works!
