I have an LLC that had minimal income last year (less than 5K), and my tax preparer suggested phasing it out and filing a regular Schedule C for my business deductions. I didn't file taxes for the LLC for 2012. If I make income this year (<10K) from commission sales, should I use my personal tax ID (SSN) for the W9 or the LLC's? Should I leave the LLC alone and let it die out?

I bought a home in 1996 for $130,000. I lived in the house as my primary residence until October 2012. For the past 4 years, I rented a room, but the home was still my primary residence during this time. Beginning December 2012, I moved out and rented the entire home. What is the latest date that I can sell the home and still claim the $250,000 exclusion?

I need to find out if my deceased husband, who passed away on 12-16-12, paid quarterly taxes during 2012, as he did in previous years. We filed joint tax returns since 1995. His estate is currently in probate, and we need this information for the 2012 tax return, which will be part of finalizing his estate. How can I obtain this information?

I am looking to purchase two real estate investment properties that I plan to rent out. I will have expenses such as travel, rehab and maintenance costs, and purchasing appliances. I have considered an LLC but the loan program does not allow me to sign these properties to an LLC. What write-off options should I track for upcoming tax filings, and what am I justified in writing off? Are there any tax credits I should expect for my first two mortgages?

I own a house with my husband that has a mortgage and another house with my mother that is paid for in full. Is there anything I can deduct on my taxes for the house with my mother, and how are these deductions reflected on my tax return?
