When it comes to tax questions, sometimes you just gotta ask, "Where the hell are you BobC ?"

Alan is correct. However, consult the tax professional that you use and that is not Turbotax.

Don't forget Turbotax actually hires tax professionals to offer online assistance to people that want it. I know someone who was doing that a couple years ago. Good, knowledgeable guy was the Controller for Greats Lakes Brewing at one time. Just trying to follow the Turbotax instructions yourself, now that's a different story. LOL

Yes, I fully understand that they hire very qualified professionals. I respect that approach. I saw his question, and the ones that many on this site ask, and felt that he needed to sit in front of a qualified accountant/CPA who would answer his questions and walk him through the scenarios. Just went over the taxes with my accountant last night - ouch!!

My wife does not work. Her capital gains were 50% more than my salary last year and my salary, with incentives and bonuses, was 85% higher than my base salary. Fortunately, she is paying the tax bill.

Here's hoping those gains don't turn into big losses in 2022. LOL

Characters, words, sentences, or paragraphs?

(in all seriousness, I am looking forward to a detailed response.)

Peter,

That depends on the field of law. Every day I tell lawyers what to do or the deal will not work. Not a lawyer, though I have been married to two. I got the second one, my current wife, through property law. She wanted me to attend her class and tell the professor he did not know what he was talking about. I told her I did not want her to fail the class. Parrot what he said, then ingore it. I've never done any research on Blackacre.

I hated property law more than any other subject in law school. They lost me at springing remainders. Mercy.
