I paid taxes for the tax year 2018, but when I logged into the IRS website today, it showed a request for verification of non-filing. I didn't request this and can't see my 2018 tax transcript. How can I obtain my 2018 tax transcript?

I have tax liens on my home and have been approved for a refinance. The lender requires payoff amounts from the IRS, but the IRS told me they don't send payoff amounts and to use my transcripts online. However, the transcript amounts state 'not a payoff amount,' and the lender won't close without a payoff amount. What should I do?

I live in NJ and have a second home in NY that I use on weekends. I am selling this property for $645K, acquired in 2021 for $400K, with $10K spent on improvements. Do I have to pay taxes as a non-resident for the full gain amount, and how are closing fees treated?

I’m planning to donate money to the Shawtown High School Alumni Association, a 501(c)3 nonprofit organization. I want to know their standing with the IRS, including their filing status and the use of Form 990 for yearly filings. Additionally, I’m concerned about the organization’s failure to provide members with proper IRS forms to claim their donations as tax-exempt.

My mother recently died and I handled all her bills, including paying her federal taxes. We moved her from Florida to Illinois three years ago. I never considered paying Illinois state taxes for her because she had no earned income or property in Illinois, and all her banking was in Florida. Now, I'm questioning whether I should have paid Illinois state taxes for the years 2016, 2017, and 2018. Additionally, my mother had a trust established in Florida, and I'm unsure if the State of Illinois is entitled to any taxes from her trust.
