No, she's not getting $380 back, it went down $380 because of that misc. work. I'll play it safe, thanks for the help.

With Turbo Tax, you can file an amended return using a 1040-X

Well, basically what a 1040-X is for, is to allow you as the tax-payer to amend a return (up to three years in the past I believe, don't quote me on that tho).

That form is that for just this reason that she's having. She got a "late" 1099. Now she must REFILE with the IRS, even if it drastically changes the numbers. AFTER she's recieves the refund, restart Turbo Tax and put in the new numbers. Turbo Tax sHOULD automatically do it without to much difficult on the filers part.

Well, I haven't actually submitted her return yet. I was actually waiting for that form. She was because its hers. But she told me that she should be getting one, so we waited before we submitted. So its not too late. I entered it in and it made her return drop down $380. Not to $380 total, but $380 less than what she was getting before she entered in the 1099-MISC. Am I confused or you?

Not now!! I miss or miss read really. I thought she had already filed. Like above, employers have until 1/31 to MAIL their respective forms out, doesn't matter when you recieve them!

All cleared up. But it was good info non the less right?

Correct me if I am wrong, but don't you want to be close to 0 in the end? All you are doing when you get a big return is letting the gov. borrow your money tax free...I say forget them and claim as many things as I can. This way you see it in your paychecks and not in that one lump some at the begining of May, or whenever you file and receive.

And just to be sure, you are calculating the taxes owed on 1099 income with Schedules "C" and "SE" correct? As in, not just adding the 1099 amount to your wages earned in 2006?

The IRS isn't THAT smart. They get ripped off like anything else. At work all of these "ghetto" women claim other people's kids every year to get back up to 6,000$. How on earth do you claim so many different SS#s over the years and never get caught?
