I am considering a $100,000 withdrawal and would like to know if income averaging will help. Is it possible in this case? What is the best option? My company allows up to 3 years to pay the taxes, and I can also recontribute during these 3 years to reduce the amount of taxable withdrawn money. Should I choose to defer my tax payment until then?

I helped my son's friend file his taxes, but his refund was denied because the IRS said he owed money from previous years where he had drawn unemployment benefits. The problem is the boy was in high school and only 16 or 17 at that time. I later learned that his dad is the one who claimed these benefits and should be the one paying this back. The IRS won't talk to me, and the boy's parents won't take care of this matter. I gave the boy his refund early, and now I'm out about $500. They won't pay me back. What can I do?

I am selling my home in California and will make a profit of $100,000-$120,000. My husband and I have poor credit, so we plan to go on the title of a home my dad will purchase in North Carolina and refinance when our credit improves. We will give my dad $50,000 as a down payment. Are there gift taxes involved, and will the profit from the home sale affect our taxes negatively? What is our best tax strategy?
