Do we need an actual Social Security card to have our taxes figured? We use a service that helps older people for free and they mentioned needing an actual SS card to file. We both have Medicare cards but haven't had actual SS cards in years.

I am disputing a 1099 vs W2 issue where my employer falsely claimed I agreed to be an independent contractor. I received a 1099 with incorrect earnings. How can I dispute this and what steps should I take?

Our choir director does not wish to receive a salary, so the church is putting his entire salary into the missions fund, per his request. He also requested and received $2700.00 of that salary for a missions trip with his wife. Some say there is no tax liability, but I question that. Should this transaction be reported as salary, and is it wrong to report it to the IRS? What is the correct procedure?

I owed Bank of America approximately $610,000 when they agreed to a short sale of my home for $310,000 in 2010. The title company sent me a 1099-S for $310,000, but my tax guy says they should have sent a 1099-C because I received none of the proceeds. The IRS may think I owe taxes on this amount. What should I do?
